10 Pulled Groin Symptoms
Symptom #6: Weakness
Muscle weakness occurs when there is lack of muscle strength. There are many causes of muscle weakness and it can be categorized into true or perceived muscle weakness. True weakness occurs when there is a skeletal muscle disease (inflammatory myopathy, muscular dystrophy, myasthenia gravis), injury, or electrolyte imbalance. Perceived muscle weakness occurs when the affected individual feels that more effort is required than usual to exert an amount of force despite having normal muscle strength. This can be seen in conditions such as chronic fatigue syndrome.
Muscle weakness in a pulled groin is true weakness as it may be due to muscle tears or damage. Physical therapy is important as it can help regain muscle strength, improve movement, prevent future injury, and accelerate healing.
