The past couple of weeks, I’ve had a problem with my piriformis. La de da. I thought I got a grip on it last week, but it started to rear it’s ugly head again around Monday. All of the usual feelings were there. Tightness starts in my ass, moves up into my back and radiates down my leg. It even got to the point that the small of my back was hurting when I wasn’t running.
I found some interesting stretches and started slowly working out the issue. However, I figured I needed a little extra help. This morning, I went and got a nice deep tissue massage. He was very good and did some stretching along with the massage. I was pretty sore immediately after the massage. I also was very nauseous and a bit light headed. That all seems to have subsided and I feel great.
Hopefully, I’ll not be sore tomorrow morning on my run and the pain in my ass will be gone. We’ll see!
