Passing through the groin and the inner thigh, the adductors are 7 in all and are called: short adductor, long adductor, great adductor, small adductor, pectineus, gracilis and external obturator.
Like other muscles in the human body, the adductor muscles also have a certain susceptibility to undergo contractures, strains or tears and to develop inflammation of the tendons of origin or insertion.
