Inguinal pain
I've been having inguinal/lower abs pain since last 4 months, it started while I was working out in gym. The pain is in right side of lower abs. I can feel that while bending and moving / walking. But, don't feel it much if I'm sleeping. I also feel pain in inside of right leg a bit sometimes. I stopped working for a week but it did not improve, So I visited a Physiotherapist. The pain got better for a while and then went back the same. So, the physiotherapist referred me to an orthopedic. He checked but didn't find anything specific so he asked for a sonography, the sonography came with no specific findings. After the next visit he referred me to a general surgeon, who checked and guessed it might be hernia despite me telling that the previous doctor ruled it out. Now, I still have the pain and I've no idea which type of doctor to visit. I'm not confident in my last doctor's diagnosis so can't go back there. Guide me please.

Problem you describe is involvement of both orthopaedic and general surgeon.
As you visited hope they examined you throughly.
Lower right side pain involves some muscle strain , appendix also in that region , and hernia pain also present in that location so common.
But as you described sonography was done - its should rule out appendix , hernia and if their is muscle tear or strain or local muscle inflammation.
As you said - pain some time goes to legs also. My question to you is that pain in groin region too front part of your thigh ?
Are you into taking of protien and muscle supplements?
If yes - then you should get your MRI of the hip as it may help to check if their is decreased blood supply to your hip joint bone and accordingly treatment can be planned .
But as mri is expensive so proper examination is required first. You can consult us or senior orthopaedic near by you.
Plz- first examination then mri.
