Dear MendMeShop,

Paul, thanks for the information. I am using my Ultrasound Equip. twice a day. I can already tell a difference in my knees. I was already receiving ultrasound treatments as well as the electrode treatments a couple of times a week for the last 4 weeks or so with my Dr. When I saw your website and the Ultrasound for use in the home , I ask him if it would benefit me to be able to do the ultrasound treatments every day as well as when I was in his office. He said absolutely. That made my decision to purshase the equip. a lot easier. I begain to notice a big difference after the first week. I am now beginning my second week. I placed a order for more Gel over the weekend. Hope to receive it soon. I only wish I could have discovered your site 9 months ago when I first started having this trouble.

Progression of a Groin Pull

This can be classified into 3 grades of groin pull or strain severity:

Groin injuries can occur in any sport.

Minor - Grade 1 Groin Pulls involve stretching of your groin muscles which results in slightly pulled muscles or very small tears in your muscles. You will generally feel mild cramping which will be a little tender or uncomfortable, but will involve no swelling or no loss of strength.

Moderate - Grade 2 Groin Pulls are more painful and involve a partial tearing of the groin fibers in your muscle, tendon, or at the tendon attachment to your bone. You will generally experience some pain, along with swelling, decreased range of motion and strength, as well as difficulty walking or running. Your groin muscles will often be painful when you touch them.

How to Order

Severe - Grade 3 Groin Pulls involve a complete tear (rupture) of your groin muscle fibers generally at your muscle/tendon and bone attachment; it is very painful and less frequent than the others. You will tend to experience a burning or stabbing pain, a lot of swelling and minimal strength, which may prevent you from walking without assistance or make it impossible for you to run. Bruising in the injured area is common a few days after the accident. This type of pull or strain may require a surgical repair.

Should you seek medical attention?

Seek medical attention to have a correct diagnoises.

This is up to your discretion; however any continued discomfort in your groin or pelvis area should be investigated. If you continue to experience the groin pull symptoms and have tried the suggested conservative treatments, it is recommended that you seek professional medical attention. If you experience any of the symptoms noted below it is recommended that you seek immediate attention:

  • Severe pain and tenderness
  • Problems or swelling in or around the genitalia (penis, scrotum, testicles).
  • A cut, lump or bulge or bleeding in your groin area.
  • Major hip/thigh movement problems causing a severe limp and/or "popping noises"
  • Urinary problem.
  • A groin rash.
  • Postoperative problems after a groin operation.
  • Exposure to an STD.
  • Groin pain has not improved after 1 week, where symptoms are more severe or frequent.
  • Signs of shock (lightheadedness, restlessness, shallow breathing, sweating, weakness, nausea) or a severe fever.

Dear MendMeShop,

I have been suffering from chronic back pain (5 herniated discs) for years now. After reading on the internet and finding your products I bought the home ultrasound and medicated gel. And, I can not thank you enough for such amazing products! Nothing has given me relief like it before. I am very impressed with your company and the quality of your products. Totally amazing and an extreme blessing for any severe back pain suffer. I am now able to take a lot less medication and am ice pack free!!!
