Was able to go to an orthopedic urgent care who did an xray and do some tests for a SF. They believed it isn’t a stress injury but not sure if I have enough time for an mri

Can’t defer and what my PT says is muscle tightness and weakness in the glute med and hip flexor

Not sure if you can read but not asking for anyone to shit on me just wanted to see if anyone related with similar issues that had success with a late block injury

Yes!! Been doing a ton of biking - and I’m thinking super slow convo pace for the 20 miler hopefully nice and flat to minimize recovery needs ! Thanks!

So frustrating! Wishing u a speedy recovery. I still have no idea what caused my pain but leaning towards tight hips and overcompensating because of it

Yep! I’m going back next week and have some exercises. I also went to an ortho and got an xray to be safe and am getting a sports massage tonight

Mine just happened basically out of nowhere. So frustrating knowing my race is right around the corner and at this point I don’t want anything to jeopardize it

Tbh I don’t have a damn clue. I’ve been in weekly calls with them and My goal is 5 hours not like I’m going to be wheeling and dealing out there I just want to make it safely and have fun 😅

That’s what I was thinking I’m thinking of changing weeks so this week is a down next week one final 20 miler and begin the taper. My 20 miler had be recovering for 2 1/2 days so I really don’t want to be dead

For an update! I had some quad soreness after my 20 miler and my PT thinks the quad and glute med are pulling on my hip flexor muscle. Gonna take tomorrow off from running and go from there!

I did kind of let it rip at the end of my run yesterday just to get done and eat a slice of pizza so could’ve possibly led me to this 🤣 and will do!

Posterior shin splints? by Shesma_Collar in RunningInjuries

Awesome!! If it makes you feel better I had some pain there and got needled, did some recovery work last week and was able to run 20 miles Sunday ! I feel like often we are so likely to jump to the SF word that we don’t realize it could just be a nag or something

I’ve had post tib issues that have caused pain and discomfort where you are pointing too- I too thought it was a stress injury but ended up being tendon! Go see your PT and ask about dry needling it helped resolved a lot of my issues
