This is a blog intended to help people who are suffering from the dreaded sports hernia injury. Only a handful of doctors understand the sports hernia. The goal here is to create a collaboration of ideas in order to help those acheive relief, and to learn from one another regarding this condition and its related pains and dysfunctions.

a good picture of the transversalis fascia and surrounding structures
the transverse fascia is what is stretched and/or torn in the sports hernia. sometimes the oblique aponeurosis is as well.
I received bilateral sports hernias in a sports accident. Many doctors were negligent for a year and a half before a proper diagnosis. No doctor had heard of a sports hernia before that point, until I had found my own expert surgeon via my own research and referral.
This is a common story that countless athletes and weekend warriors alike share.
If you suffer chronic groin pain, you may have come to the right blog.
