Most often, a hip flexor strain can be confused with a groin strain (adductor strain). This is because the athlete will have pain on the anterior- medial hip. One differentiating factor is adductor strains cause pain with lateral movements (cutting), and hip flexor strains do not. It is possible to involve both muscle groups in an injury though. A quad strain will also present with symptoms similar to a hip flexor strain.

as per Feinsand’s twitter:

A-Rod has tendinitis of his hip flexor tendon. Girardi says it’s not related to the labrum surgery he had last year
