Lionel Messi has been playing through thigh discomfort for several weeks now, ESPN report.
The Argentine supposedly takes no break because of Barca's limited attacking options.
The source adds that there's no long-term concern about Messi's conditions. However, he should be treated carefully in order to prevent further risks.
Since the season's start, Leo Messi got injured twice. In August, the Argentine suffered a foot injury and was out for a month and a half. In September, his adductor problems emerged again (for the third time after September 2016 and March 2018) and he was forced to spend one more week out.
Earlier on, it was reported that some other Barca's heavyweights actually play through a slight pain. Apart from Messi, those are Marc-Andre ter Stegen, Luis Suarez and Samuel Umtiti.
Suarez, though, opted for undergoing surgery that sidelined him for 4 months.
