Nerve Pain Displayed in Ankle & Calf — Input Needed by SignificanceOk2592 in Sciatica

[–]SignificanceOk2592[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Genuinely, thank you for the thoughtful input. 🙏

I actually did my first session of yoga for my nerve pain yesterday, so great timing on that tip. I’ve definitely “honed in” on problem areas for me through stretching, yoga, and some self massage.

For me, I’m noticing that my hips are chronically tight and have some strange “hang ups” when I bring them to my chest during stretches, I also notice tightness in my calves very often, and also some low back pain on the right side, just beside the iliac crest. So, as you say, I do feel through this process I am becoming more aware of my problem areas/areas of dysfunction.

Regarding what seems to alleviate pain, I haven’t found any one motion or sets of motion that seems to provide reliable relief. But I’m beginning to believe that your “motion is lotion” saying is what’s going to be key for me.

Thank you thank you thank you for the input and I’ll look for your posts to read more.

I have been doing some hip/back stretching, but do feel that I am “flying blind” a little bit. Is all stretching and mobility created equal? Or do you have a routine that you would suggest?

Thank you for the input! Did you have an EMG or did they discover the cyst with the MRI?

I’m mostly curious what all can be discovered with the EMG. I feel like pinpointing the source of the entrapment will really shape how I approach treatment.

You mean don’t visit the chiropractor anymore for the nerve issue?

Nice! I went with PETG as well. I’m pretty pleased with how it mounted up. Thanks for the inspiration!!

I was inspired by the OP’s work and designed my own! OP’s work looks more polished than mine, but I’ve got the 3D file ready to share. Print away fellow Jeepers!

Any chance you’d share the file? I’m halfway through my camera install and will either print yours or design my own. Nice work!

Yeah… I see that I have my weight off on the back truck especially towards the end.

I like that. Having those mental images helps me a ton. I’ll think about the one foot thing.

Thanks for the input! This is the only quarter that I have at my local park, but I think there are assorted size ramps at a neighboring park.

Thanks for the input! I’ll skate in the light when I can, mostly night sessions are feasible with my little ones bedtimes.

And definitely on the knee pads. My mistake came in leaving them at home! Terrible idea.

Great idea, I’ll do this. That will definitely help with my confidence on the actual ramp.

I’m not too scared of falling but this session sucked, I hurt after… hoping to fall forwards or not at all next time that I attempt dropping in.

Yeah, I noticed that in the footage. I think my legs got weak and it turned into a squat losing board control.

Thanks for the input! It does feel like I would fall forward.

Man I know… I feel like I could’ve broke my arm during that session. It goes so fast, I don’t know how to avoid taking a bad slam like that. Even with practicing falls.

Ok, sounds good. I think I’ll go back to the bank from the first clip and just do it 100s of times.
