3-6 weeks seems the norm per google

Which is why you should never Google medical stuff.

I'm nearly 48 but am looking to run one or two marathons a year to stay fit. I was getting knee problems on 20 minute runs a few weeks ago and was lucky enough to be able to be able to afford private Sports Injury advice to sort it out. The issue was actually in my hips, which was having a knock on effect on my ITB and therefore my knee. Additionally, I had a problem in my abductor which was presenting as a groin injury.

I was treated by the specialist and then given some stretches to sort out these problems. I was also told to stop running for a week but to "cross train", which means other sports and exercises.

We went away to a sports hotel at about this time and I didn't do any long distance running but I did go to the gym and play football and cricket with my son. In the second game of football I strained my left groin and, after a tackle was painful, stoppped playing. I carried on with the stretches and gym work.

I've been for a run this evening and there wasn't event a twinge from my dodgy groin. I had a few "old man" pains but that was it. We got home on the Saturday afternoon of the Man City game.

In other words, my "groin injury" was fixed in less than a week because I identified it and sorted it straight away. I have other aches and pains but I'm a non professional athlete in my late 40s who likes a beer, a burger and a cheeky fag.

If I can recover from a "groin injury" in less than a week by pulling out of a match as soon as I felt it then a pro footballer with supreme fitness should be able to do the same or better. If it's a serious problem then it is an injury where you are out for a large number of weeks. But if it's a twinge and you quit the session quickly enough, you can be running again within a week and playing again soon after.

My hope with Trossard is that this is precautionary. If so he'll be back for Newcastle. If, however, he's carried on through the "rip" then we can kiss goodbye to him for a couple of months.

This.
Doctor’s sigh when patients come armed with self diagnoses gleaned from websites.

Some fans are just looking for gloomy news, possibly the same fans who in the summer thought Trossard was another misfit bought from an inferior overseas league.

Is it possible that your groin injury actually isn't fully recovered, but it feels fine because you're not sprinting at full speed, stretching a leg out, changing direction etc, as you would in a competitive game of football?

So much speculation based on no information. We don't know anything other than he has a "groin injury" What and what grade we don't know. Let's just hope it's not bad. That said we do have depth in our squad and whilst he would be missed it's not a disaster.

Thats ok. We can play Knocka..... oh. I mean we can play Andon..... oh. I mean we can play Isqie......oh. I mean we can play Locad.... oh, thank god we can't play him. We can play Alireza. Or pump March up there and let Bernardo fill in at LWB.

The main worry is that we won't see Trossard again in a Brighton shirt. 'The Knock' is like a Stephen King novel for BHAFC.

If it's anything like the groin injury I got playing padel tennis on hols last July he'll be lucky to be back to full fitness by the end of the season :eek:
