Hi,

To give you a brief history, I am 40 years old man who likes to keep relatively fit. I am a hockey player (but not at the moment), I like to run a couple of times a week and I also like to ride my bike at the moment that is three times a week 10.5 miles to work and then back again.

My problem is I am having a pain in my lower back to the left of my spine around the top of my pelvis (best guess not good at biology) this feels like a sharp specific pain at the same time as I get this pain I also get the feeling of a ham string pull half way down my left thigh which feels like an actual lump is being pulled. I am also suffering from a pain in my right hip which will not go away an when I exercise a lot feels painful to touch so I can not lay on that side.

So far I have been seen by four physio's two provided by the NHS and two private physio's and I have not had any success all of them have agreed that I do not have arthritis in my hip but have not been able to sort out the problem. The last physio who is a sports physio of a very high standing has recommended I see an Osteopath but I cannot afford to do this at the moment.

I am now unable to play hockey because of the pain and I also suffer when I am cycling or running so it is impacting on my life.

Can anyone offer any advice on how to get past this?

Thanks,
