As I walked down the hallway this morning, I felt pain in my hip. It felt like a cramping pain that I would think I could get rid of by heat and stretching. I'm wondering what I did to create this? Yesterday, I only did the new stretching movements the therapist said we should do everyday (my wife did them) and the only exercise I got was 5 min on the bike to warm up beforehand. I planned on doing my PT, but thought it might be a good idea to take off and quite frankly I was a bit sore from all the recent PT work and stretching. As a result, I laid in bed all day. Partly because my therapist said it's a good idea to let this heal and give it time. Furthermore, I slept in many new positions and I heard a big pop in my hip during the night. Moreover, there was a slight earthquake last night that made me kind of jump in the middle of the night and pop out of bed...
Today, after felling the pain I iced then hit the hot tub. Afterwards I went in the dojo and biked for 10, did all my PT work and biked for 10 more before jumping in an ice bath for 10min. I'm feeling better and will see what becomes of it? I did have pain during my PT work in weighted leg-press drill other than that the bike felt really good. Hmmmm... :(
The therapist said that hip rehab has peaks and valleys, maybe this a valley brought on by the new stretching exercises and walking? However, I was stronger today in my exercises overall :)
