So, I started horseback riding a few weeks ago, and also I have to run in P.E. every day. Every week for awhile now, I've noticed a slight pain on the side of my hip, but it gradually has worsened. Today is the worst it has ever been. I've never broken a bone, but this is the most extreme physical pain I've ever felt. I can't even take 2 steps without having to sit down or limp the rest of my way. I can't even walk down stairs. Whenever I move I feel this horrible sharp pain that shoots throughout my side. I've pulled a muscle before, and this is way worse. I haven't ever torn a muscle, so could this be what I'm experiencing? Should I see a doctor?
West Coast - You may have torn something
ReplyDeleteWhen I played varsity basketball I tore my groin once
Sounds similar
Have you iced it yet?
If it is pulled
Ice it for 20 minutes
Relax for 40 minuies
Ice it again for 20 mins
then if you can try icying as much as you can
TAKE A BREAK FROM RUNNING
If it is Torn you will need to go to a doctor
You gotta take a break and ice for a couple days to know for sure
