An adductor injury involves the muscles on the inside of the thigh that pull the legs together. Injuries happen when the adductor muscles are stretched too far
Most adductor muscle strains respond to conservative treatment. Initial treatment includes activity modification, which may temporarily include crutches. Ice and anti-inflammatory medication are appropriate for acute muscle strains. As symptoms improve, gentle stretching and strengthening exercises are appropriate. Your physician may recommend a physical therapy program to aid with these exercises
