Well....Ill fill everyone in.
Last year I use to run cross-country for my High School. Around November, I pulled my right groin muscle. Stupid me toughed it up and kept running only to accomplish a left pulled groin muscle....and more muscles that I had no idea existed in my inner leg. I gave up cross-country. Thats one smart thing I did. I had therapy for my pulled muscles and painkillers, 800mg worth....I could barely walk. Every twist and turn, or going up the stairs killed me. Now, I'm worried as hell. My right leg is fine, I don't feel much pain. However, my left leg is killing me and still killing me. My therapist told me that my left leg was inflammed more than my right. Well thanks @sshole, I could of figured that one out myself. My therapist was no help. I've been doing some research and I found out that I have a "athletes hernia".
There are many sites on "athletes hernia"
check it out:

For healing, I'm reading that I'll need surgery. BUT, I'm 18 years old.........am I too young? I'm extremely worried...I hope this won't hold me back signing the papers for the United States Army..............

Good Luck! my friend who runs crosscountry isn't allowed to run anymore 🙁 he ran like in the morning before school, during lunch, and after school and at night.. he ran too much so his legs are messed up.. he has like state records though
 
moron :roll: i dont feel bad for you at all. i played rugby, football, and baseball all through highschool so im not speaking from ignorance. IF IT HURTS...STOP. i cant believe people continue to play/workout/run/whatever on an injury, even if they arent sure how bad it is.

you dont seem stupid, therefore you should have known to stop running. hopefully you will learn from this...10 more minutes of almost anything isnt worth months of pain and torture.
 
I agree with you Bigsm00th. I am an IDIOT! I should have just stopped, let it heal, and work my way back up. Im a dumb@ss 1st class.......

he is an adult. he doesnt need to be comforted when he knows he made a mistake. at least he is smart enough to know the difference and learn from it.

psycho, im sure you will be fine since you are still young and didnt seem to totally break yourself, but hopefully you will really learn a life-long lesson from this.

Eh, I think that the whole 'if it hurts stop' mentality is weak. But allow me to justify my reasoning. That's just a cop out for the majority of the people out there. THe majority of people can not tell the difference between a good workout pain, and an actual bad pain. And that's the problem. I see this everyday when I'm at practice, people who think their shoulders are hurt, but really, it's a muscle sore, not a wrecking the joint sore. The is a big diffference.

As to the OP, I feel your pain. I partially tore my mcl, didn't allow it to heal fully, and then retore it while training. It happens when you're pushing the edge. I've since recovered though, and you will too as long as you get a good team of physio people behind you.

 
..took me years to heal up from a bruised left hip joint. Had to stop running completly. Switched over to a recumbent stationary. Best thing I ever did.

who are you to say what does and doesnt hurt for someone else? if someone feels pain, then they feel pain. there is no reason to push yourself so hard you permanently damage a body part. i played through aches and pains but nothing that ever felt even somewhat serious. i played a baseball game with 2 broken thumbs, but those are basically insignificant because they are just thumbs. that sounds contradictory to what i said earlier, but what i meant was non-trivial stuff. i just forgot to say it.
 
get the surgery done. If it is athletes hernia, there is no way around it. You'll be out of sports for a while afterwards though.
