pain in groin

Since about 2 weeks I have a nagging pain in the left groin.Also my left thigh hurts in front down to the knee.I walk with a limp,because it hurts so bad. I am on pain management,I have a implanted pump for back problems,and normally this takes care of my pains in the back and neck.Why do I have this pain in my groin,that makes me miserable and wakes me up in the night.I always sleep with a pillow between the legs ,when I lay on the side or under the knees,when on the back.Even so,I woke up almost crying for pain.Last night I put the pillow under my butt and I didn't wake up.Something I did right,I guess.Thanks for answering!.

A number of different things could potentially cause this pain... it may be vascular, muscular, or structural in nature. What condition do you have that has required a pain pump, and where is it implanted?
