Patient presents with abdominal pain and tenderness .upon examination groin pain is reproduced. what is the most likely diagnosis: hernia; inflammatory bowel disease, hemorrhoid, chron's disease

Hernia would be the most likely diagnosis of the patient’s presenting symptoms of abdominal pain and tenderness along with reproducible groin pain upon examination.

Explanation:

The common symptoms of a hernia are abdominal bulge, tenderness, and pain.

The groin regions also become tender and painful, if it is an inguinal hernia. This groin pain often is a reproducible pain upon palpation during a physical examination.

In an inguinal hernia, this groin pain is associated with some bulge, pain, tension, and tenderness in the pubic regions. The groin pain also is reproducible with some sudden bending, coughing, lifting things, or any other straining movements.  

Groin pain is usually not associated with inflammatory bowel disease or Chron’s disease.
