I was going to ask what kind of work you did! I pulled a groin muscle
once, and I know how painful that is. Hope it heals fast. Mine actually
took several months to heal completely, but the worst of the pain was
over in a couple of days. After that, I could function OK, but I had
to be careful.
I got mine from salsa dancing. I felt like the very stereotype of the
middle-aged, square office worker, going salsa dancing and getting an
injury. :) It was a dance class, actually, and once we'd been taught a
couple of moves, the teacher played a few songs and had us dance for
practice. I really got into it, and started showing off, swinging my
hips and throwing my weight all over the place. All of a sudden I got
an excruciating pain on the right side of my groin, and the next thing
I knew, I was parked in the women's bathroom with some ice (from the
soda chest) wrapped in a towel and pressed up against my pelvis.
That wasn't the last time I ever went salsa dancing (gotta get back
on the horse, LOL), but I was pretty careful after that!
Hope you heal quickly! You've got a nice kitty nurse there.
