855-980-6981 We offer groundbreaking surgical procedures and treatment for core muscle injuries (also known as Sports Hernia or Athletic Pubalgia).
OUR ADVANCED SPORTS HERNIA PROCEDURE FOR CORE MUSCLE INJURY
We have pioneered several advances that have improved the standard treatment of core muscle injuries, also known as Sports Hernia or Athletic Pubalgia.
Treatment of the nerves in the area of the injury is a key aspect in the treatment of sports hernia.
These nerves are often overlooked at other centers. Failure to treat the injured nerves can lead to continued pain and shock feelings in the groin and genitals. Our surgeons repair these injured nerves to maximize surgical outcomes.
Use of bone-anchored mesh reinforcement of the core muscles.
After the repair of the muscle is done, it can be somewhat fragile due to the injury and weakened muscles. In order to reinforce the repair and guard against re-injury, a mesh is secured to the bone and placed over the repair. This technique differs from the standard hernia mesh, as our mesh is placed over the top layer of muscle, away from the nerves and structures in the inguinal canal. This allows for a very strong repair of the injured core muscles.
DIAGNOSING SPORTS HERNIA
A core muscle injury, also known as Sports Hernia or Athletic Pubalgia, is diagnosed with an MRI and physical exam.
Unlike a true hernia, sports hernia (medically known as athletic pubalgia) is actually an injury to the core muscle of the abdomen and legs. This injury causes chronic groin pain, especially with strenuous physical activities.
The most common symptom is pain in the groin area that does not go away with rest. Most people do not have a sentinel event, meaning a sudden injury. The injury often occurs slowly over time. The majority of patients are quite physically fit, but it can occur in anyone who injures his/her core musculature. There are several nerves that are often injured in addition to the muscles. These nerves can cause electric shock or tingling pain in the groin and genital area.
TREATING SPORTS HERNIA
Surgical repair of the core muscles is often required to treat a core muscle injury (Athletic Pubalgia). When there are injured nerves involved, they may require treatment as well. This can involve freeing the nerves from scar tissue (neurolysis) or repairing a damaged nerve (neurorrhaphy). This procedure is an outpatient surgery, followed by an immediate therapy protocol.
