    Re: Mother of all problems

    Hi all

    Small update fro me, i spent the last 2 days doing core exercises in particular obliques and qudas with hamstrings stretches

    I have noticed that my quads stretch at the different ;lengths eg left quad will feel stretched almost the minute i pull it up while the right will only feel stretched when i pull it right back

    muscle imbalance ?

    Im almost able to stop the musce spasms in my buttocks, but ido this by tighteining my quads

    again is this a muscle imbalance

    I have a real desire to exerises my left quad and i do but at the same time i also feel it sometimes dies eg it feels really weak but it depends on the position i am in

    still cant sit down unlless i have tennis balls under my buttocks

    and i have lower back pain which is only really relieved by doing a superman position on my bed decompressing it, i can only sleep on my fron its the only comfortable position for me,

    im thinhking maybe spinal stenosis or a vascular problem (blood vessel)

    also my leg muscle sometimes feels squishy !!!

    will update you will with my progress ASAP

    I have an Wikipedia reference-linkMRI on my right hip friday but this was a favour i caled in from friend and probably the last one i can call but we'll seehow i get on

    i feel alot better afterdoing the core exercises which is the main thing

    Re: Mother of all problems

    UPDATE

    after 2 years of the inital pop in my right thigh and several months in bed running through ewverything in my ENTIRE life and experiencing some crazy kinda pain i didnt even know existed

    I managed to get to the bottom of the problem.

    the inital POP in the right thing was my right hip flexor the one that turns the leg outwards.

    after 1 - 2 weeks of the legbeing stuck in the 60 degree angle i yanked it back to the normal angle

    unfortunately this exposed my siatic nerve or another nerve and lead to me starting to lose sensation in my legs.

    over a year i eventually couldnt feel them anymore but didnt know it

    one day i went to the gym and did a work out which didnt feel right but i carried on anyway and thenext day i woke up and was walking like the below

    anyway now my muscles and so have recovered the only problem is I have lost tension in my body and my right leg muscles/tendos/ligaments have lengthen.

    for y body to compensate i tense my right buttock, and thigh flexor often usually for about 30 - 40 mintes at a time and i dont even feel it, it seems a background action by my body
