I have read that doing some exercise can help towards long term pain relief. I started with a personal trainer last week and since then have had more pain than ever.
I'm now at a point where sitting is absolutely impossible. Even just trying to sit down for a minute results in immediate pain! So I avoid sitting at all costs. (am currently kneeling at the coffee table)
Should I call to cancel my personal trainer?
have you have a high intensity mri on this area? pain is not coming from nothing. i just wonder what they see going on.
