Iliopsoas muscle causing pain all these years!

Hi all, I'm new to this forum.
I've finally found out what has been causing me pain in my lower back and all down my left side. At first a trapped nerve was suspected but after pushing and prodding from the physio in the hip area, I've found out it's a very tight iliopsoas muscle. Felt crucifying pain had to tell her to stop-twice!
Anyway, thought I'd post in the hope that I can share similar stories.

Hi jennyla,
It was discovered yesterday. I'm starting new exercises today. Have to lie on my front and bend my leg, hold the position while tucking tummy and pelvis in.
Are you suffering with similar?

Hi Jennyla & welcome to the forum. Jennyla we do ask that all new members make a separate intro thread so that all members will see it & be able to say hello & welcome aboard. To make a separate thread look to the left & click Post New Topic, type in a heading & write a little about yourself. We look forward to hearing from you.

Thanks.

VLou, I completely agree with you. When everything the drs do all comes back within normal limits & they cannot figure out what is causing the problem it just wears on the person over time. It gets us not just physically but mentally as well.
