Hi, I have pain in the groin area and down the inside of my leg, mostly when I get up after I sit a long time. I have to stand still a few seconds for the pain to go away before I take a step. Someone said I could need hip replacement. I have gained a good bit of weight and my stomach is large, so I wondered if it could be the pressure on some nerves or something. I told my doctor about this and he checked my circulation and said I had good pulse. He said it could be arthritis or my weight and didn't seem worried. Anyone with suggestion or idea on what could be wrong?
