severe tight muscles
Posted: 08-07-08 07:33am

Hi im 23 years old next month and about 5-6 years ago i had a pretty bad skateboarding accident. I fell about 7-8 feet and landed on my tail bone and have had some severe pain since then. Well in the years of corse it has gotten better. Let me explain my symptoms

Same as the hip misalignment forum i am stiff as a board when i wake up everyday. the doctor had me on a running profile for a year and that was it. they did xrays and said my spine was ok.

My psyatic nerver i think it is called in my hips are always getting tight so i am constantly stretching those.

My glutes and hamstrings are always super tight making it hard for me to do daily weight training, sports or anything. i am always uncomftorbale and i can not stand up in one spot for too long or my back starts to tighten up. The physical therapist told me i needed to stretch more so now i can put my hands under my feet when i go to touch my toes. I have alot of flexablitly, but if i go run i am done for days maybe weeks. It seems my calves tighten up alot too and i just can not pin point my self what it is. I have seen many doctors and none think i need an MRI , but i can not figure this out. I need some help here. I just want ot get as close to normal again. My girlfriend tells me that she thinks my right leg is shorter now or my hip is higher also. And it is always my right leg that is the main pain and left hurts alot also, but not as bad. Dang leg cramps kill me and i am always in some kind of main. DOCS out there. What could it be.
