Crotch strap injury?

[H2Andy]

good result, glad to hear it

Due to some previous parachuting experience, when I made my DIY crotch strap, I made sure it divided (one fixing point at the back and two fixing points at the front) so there was some free space in the middle.....

I don't think I would care to dive with a single piece crotch strap without protection of at least some neoprene.
On second thoughts definitely NOT.

Imagine using a scooter OOWWWWWWW!!!

Or even a giant stride with an inflated BC!

Just got back from the ultrasound---I'm having a boy!!! Sorry could not resist

All results were negative so there are no lumps, fluid or any twisting (hurts just saying it) of the blood or other vessels. The best guess is that I did bruise or somehow compress "the boys" and the only thing I can think of that did that is the crotch strap.

Oh.. and as for the nickname that is WAY to unfortunate a coincidence.

dolphins with a funny smile on their face did you?

not an equip issue.

Groin pull, not an equip issue.

Well, groin pulls cover a wide range of possible injuries, including adductor strains, osteitis pubis, sports hernias, etc (unfortunately, I know this from experience, not medical training). Also, a "groin pull" could be caused by the equipment as well, especially a strap through the groin. At a minimum, the strap could cause compression of the ilioinguinal nerve, which is also classified as a type of groin injury.
