Groin pain can be a myriad of things ranging from hip joint issues to a hernia. You'll have to have one of those global disclaimers about getting health advice from TGR.
The thing to note is that actual hip joint (femoral head and acetabulum - the ball and cup respectively) pain is often felt in the groin, not on the outside which we colloquially think to be our hip. A way to test this is flex your hip to 90 degrees and then rotate your foot outwards (i.e., hip flexion and internal rotation of the hip joint). It may be easier to lie on your back and have someone else do it to you and compare both sides. If the pain is recreated it may be coming from the actual hip joint. Notably, a tendinitis can occur to the iliopsoas tendon which runs anterior to the hip capsule, though much less common than issues with the hip joint itself, but it's pretty deep and you wouldn't necessarily feel "scrinching" (to use your words).
