My results after butt pain for a year are very similar plus trochanteric bursitis on both sides, and the hamstring tears are also on both side - only that I have never been a runner, and apparently have sustained these injuries from a 6-year long vinyasa flow yoga practise. It's called YOGA BUTT INJURY. <br />Have you been able to heal completely from this condition and are you still running?<br />Cheers, ZANNYAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433152851906592254.post-35291738418922623092013-11-07T16:04:51.427-07:002013-11-07T16:04:51.427-07:00I attempted the NYC marathon this weekend only to ...I attempted the NYC marathon this weekend only to be sidelined with hip pain severe enough that I stopped at mile 12. Of course, I have been googling everything, trying to self-diagnose. My MRI was today and I will have a follow-up with the Dr. soon. I have no plans to quit running and reading blog posts like this reaffirm that I made the smart choice so I can run again. Thanks for your humor and insight, I can only hope they give me some pics or a video like this and (fingers crossed) a benign diagnosis.#RunnerofSteelFLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16755262065605207885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433152851906592254.post-52605883265419859692013-08-08T08:14:14.683-07:002013-08-08T08:14:14.683-07:00Held my stomach crying laughing at your attempts a...Held my stomach crying laughing at your attempts at radiology!<br />My dad has been a marathon runner his whole life, and he's 64 now. He started running in the late 60s-early 70s when good shoes didn't exist, doing lots of road running and elevation changes without a care in the world like most think-they're-invincible-20somethings. His feet are in bad shape now, he literally can not walk around barefoot for any length of time without shoes. His knees are rough sometimes, he braces them every run, and he's thrown his back out completely twice. And he's still trucking! Like a champ! The man runs 7-8min miles for 15-20mi a week without any painkillers ever. Kinda awe-inspiring, no? He's really big on having big, aggressive goals in events, but not in speed. Pace is all well and good, hitting a great time is nice, but that probably can't be you end-all, be-all goal thinking if you want to run your whole life because it likely will lead to injury. <br />ktcNYORSFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15644101091358307924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433152851906592254.post-77308230622868665752013-03-08T02:02:58.717-07:002013-03-08T02:02:58.717-07:00Did you/ are you getting surgery for your labral t...Did you/ are you getting surgery for your labral tear?

When I went to seek a second opinion (at Stegman & Hawkins in Denver) I was told I was fine and had tendinitis. I probed the doc a bit on this. he said that we all have degenerative changes after our mid-thirties. Sometimes MRIs give us information we don't need because the changes detected aren't the problem, aren't symptomatic, and may NEVER be a problem - but since you know about them you worry. That's certainly been the case for me. I wish I had never had the MRI but luckily I didn't believe what the first docs told me because it didn't make sense - I've never had knee pain. And so I looked for help everywhere - dry needling was the fix for me. But sometimes, in the back of my mind, I have to wonder. But then that just keeps me motivated to do what I can do now because you never know how long you will be able to do the things you love. Good luck healing, and I can't wait to work on my ham/glute issues after me marathon this Saturday ;)<br />http://www.chronicrunner.com/2011/10/confessions-of-born-again-racer.htmlCaolan MacMahonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10371711289185833824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433152851906592254.post-65627320381588577752012-05-02T06:37:28.544-07:002012-05-02T06:37:28.544-07:00degenerative disk disease happens to everyone as t...degenerative disk disease happens to everyone as they get older...did they tell you that? and L4/L5 is an insanely common place for it to happen as that area bears the majority of weight in daily activities. don't let that get you down...its fairly normal for us as we age!Let the Right Ones Inhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00777796322574211408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433152851906592254.post-62286532807192190192012-05-01T19:23:33.831-07:002012-05-01T19:23:33.831-07:00See if your PT can try dry needling.

I am both just hoping the diagnosis is something that will allow me to keep running, even if it means taking a few months off to heal (it's already been a month since I last ran).

I wrote to you awhile back about having hip/back pain.. after my last race there was a Sports Dr. there whom I told about my pains.. she poked around on my butt for awhile while stretching me and making me do leg moves and she told me that theres something wrong with my hip flexor.. She wasn't specific on what was wrong, or what to do.. she told me just to take it easy and said I could continue to run but it wouldn't get better without treatment?... I hate injuries their so confusing!!..... Anyways... I hope yours gets better!! It sounds like a Great POA you've got!

It took me almost a year to get an actual diagnosis of my groin/quad/hamstring pain and it turned out to be a labral tear. I was told it would get better, did MONTHS of PT, cortisone injections, etc and it all only made it worse. A year after my initial injury (a year to the date actually) I had surgery to repair the tear.<br />I was told by many people that labral tears are no big deal. But mine took me completely out of running and I trusted my doctors for way too long until it got so bad I could hardly walk, let alone run. I don't mean to freak you out-but I just wish someone would have told me to be more aggressive with my search to fix it.Dr.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04827541464591693039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433152851906592254.post-11568728783651475022012-04-30T11:25:47.199-07:002012-04-30T11:25:47.199-07:00Oh God I saw "labral tear" and squirmed....Oh God I saw "labral tear" and squirmed.

While the laundry list of things going on isn't fun, it does give you the information you need to get started on that POA, and it doesn't mean you have to give up running. Hate to spend the money on tests like that, but sometimes it's worth it to get answers. You only want to run until you're 85?
