Long running injury here !
June 20, was running and had agonising pain in my lower abdomen, spasms, happened another time and I haven't run since. Got a bit sore on and off when I did other exercise eg yoga
In spring 21 I had really sore quad in the same side. It actually flared up during a period from hell (for which I passed out with the pain for first time ever - have since had investigation and d&c and all fine) and never went away
Saw a physio eventually May 21 who said psoas issue and said the running pain was caused my muscle spasms and now the muscle pain was radiating down my leg. Suggested stretches . Sports massage relieved the pain entirely but only for 2 hours . But until then I hadn't realised how tense the pain made me feel.
I've been doing alternate yoga and Pilates for 20 mins a day since . If I miss a day , I'm in agony. If I do it it is manageable ache. I can feel the sore muscle from my hip down my thigh but I can't seem to release the sore bit of my thigh which is the lower part.
In august went on a city break and the walking left me in agony (incidentally also had a pile flare up for first time ever which was also agony!).
Now the pain is constant in my thigh. I have booked to see another physio in desperation.
I feel really old and stiff and am sad that I can't walk properly as all my family enjoy walking! I've actually slowed down a bit as have a new rescue dog who won't walk far or fast so my fast walks around countryside have stopped anyway - not sure if this is contributing.
Has anyone had this and how can I fix this leg? I'm more flexible now after stretches, but the ache/pain is constant.
