Sports Hernia TreatmentMumbai
Sports hernia (athletic pubalgia) causes chronic groin pain in athletes. Dr. Sharad Sharma offers diagnosis and surgical repair when needed in Mumbai and Navi Mumbai.
What Is a Sports Hernia?
Sports hernia (athletic pubalgia) is a soft-tissue injury in the groin area that causes chronic pain, often in athletes. It may not show a visible bulge like a classic hernia. Treatment can include physiotherapy and, when needed, surgery to repair the weakened area and allow return to sport.
Symptoms & Diagnosis
Common symptoms include chronic groin pain that worsens with activity, especially twisting or kicking. Diagnosis is based on history, examination, and sometimes imaging. We recommend evaluation to distinguish sports hernia from other causes of groin pain.
When Surgery Is Needed
Surgery may be recommended when pain persists despite rest and physiotherapy, or when an underlying hernia or defect is identified. Dr. Sharad Sharma will assess your condition and recommend the best treatment plan for your goals.
Treatment Options
We offer conservative management (rest, physiotherapy) and surgical repair when indicated. Surgery typically reinforces the posterior wall of the inguinal canal or repairs the damaged tissue. Recovery is tailored to help you return to sport safely.
