[|Human|] i am 22 weeks pregnant and pulled a groin muscle at the very top of my thigh, the pain has been there going on 4 weeks and is making it hard to stand and walk with out limping and siting up is painful especially in the morning. also the pain feels like its spreading across my vaginal area and to the other leg and this morning I almost could not stand. I have tried children Tylenol sense I m allergic to a lot of everything else and my ob/gyn said i was only aloud children Tylenol, I cant get a call back from them and I need advice as to what could be causing the pain to spread and what to do about it to help minimize the pain thank you KRISTA
[|AI|]  Hello, and I hope I can help you today. I am sorry that you are suffering from this injury. The ligaments of pregnant women in their hips get looser from pregnancy, and that can make you more vulnerable to a hip or groin injury. So I recommend seeing an orthopedic specialist to diagnose exactly how you hurt yourself, and possibly give you a cane to help you walk until this gets better. In the meantime, there is no reason that you cannot take adult strength Tylenol, even extra strength. Tylenol has been tested for safety in pregnancy in the full adult dose. So if you take adult Tylenol, you may be able to get some relief. I hope I was able to adequately answer your question today and that my advice was helpful. Best wishes,
