I'm in a catch 22 situation, The Old Groin pains are back and with friends, that beat down the door of my knee and thigh, but could all this be simply from the metal plate still stuck inside? Could it really be catching, rubbing and irritating my muscles, tendons and the like. Well i know the answer is a resounding YES. But i have a doubt niggling and gnawing away about the Groin pain more, as it's should a dull nagging pain that is constant. It's there when you wake up, get moving, sitting down etc... I have tried resting completely, but still there, But doing physio totally flares it out of control. When i say physio i'm talking about simple steps, not far, or even anywhere if your on the wiifit.
Just a few steps and it burns like hell, and i'm back on the sofa with more painkillers, and hot water bottles. But i digress the question i ask myself is do i tell the surgeon? I see him in April for hopefully the last X-ray before the metal comes out. Do i give him a heads up, the steroid has worn off, I', back to not being able to workout much, is there a chance to shave the bone while removing the metal? Or is that daft? Perhaps i should see it through, get the metal removed, recover from that and see where we stand? Will it still be there after the plates are free, and what happens after things aren't so raw.
I'm not sure of the best policy to be honest, I feel like i should warn him that it's back, that i'm not comfortable anymore and walking is hurting a lot. But i feel like he could just think, of course it's going to hurt until the metal is out GGggrrrrrrr so stuck? What would you do?
