I started with strained back and sciatica. I don't have anymore pain but I do have swelling in this area described in the video and numbness stiffness. I thought it was hip flexor strain but I did the 1st exercise and heard snaps and instant relief. Ive had this injury for over a year now. I have aggravated this area so bad one side of my face and head have internal swelling causing my neck to feel imbalanced. Causing my traps to hurt. Ty so much for this video. Such a major help i hope heal properly bc after a year of this and that im extremely frustrated and willing to do anything for relief. I'm only 33 yrs old and this really sucks. Thank you so much again for the hope of one day being just normal. It's so hard to sleep and stay asleep bc of the internal swelling it's just hard to sleep last night was my 1st night of 8 hrs of sleep but never consistently staying asleep the the stiffness or muscle spasms wake me up each night. Smh.
I could listen to you talk all day, what a well informed teacher you are! Thanks so much

My boys are now 5, 7, and I’m still having problems. Certain movements, moving my leg a certain way etc I feel and hear a pop. Thank you for the information, I’m on the road to getting my body back after I let myself go dealing with a lot of stress the past 7 years.

I’m 24 and have been hitting the gym hard but recently came to the realization I gotta chill while I recover from this cuz it’s been about 2 months and I’m still trying to recover from this. It’s tough, sometimes it’s better through certain PT and dry needling but this video was incredible tbh. It helped my anxiety for sure at least and I got a clear idea of what it is. My right ball feels like it could sag to the floor. Annoying.

Welcome!
Useful stuff, particularly regarding the connection between abdominals and adductors, as I think that whole area is a weakness for me and I hadn't realised its all connected together, so gives me plenty of ideas for what to strengthen. Only one query, something not mentioned at all, is if there is any benefit to wearing kinesiology tape in the weak areas or things like groin supports and thigh supports. I found some benefit but I am a little concerned based on your videos that there could be an issue of excessive compression with these things that could make things worse.
Me encanta cómo explicas las dolencias. Creo que lo que yo tengo tiene que ver más con el abductor.

Like low volume, or do nothing and rest? And if I do have low volume days and high volume days, how many days should I rest and do nothing? 1 or 2, and if two days, should they be in a row, or have a high volume day, low volume day, high volume day, rest day, low volume, high volume, low volume repeat (as an example)?

Went to patient first and doctor cleared me of a hernia and recommended rest and a heating pad, it’s been about 12 weeks since I got the injury and this is the best advice I’ve gotten since going to the doctor recently.

@@To_energize Hi Abhiram. Well, happy to say the pain has gone after 20 months. Was riding with it during that time, so not sure whether cycling may have been contributing to it. Physio thinks it may have been related to a back condition so possibly referred pain. Pain was diagonal from right of belly button down towards groin. Hernia ruled out. No lumps. No infection of any kind and nothing wrong with bladder etc, so definitely musko/skeletal. Had scans done and nothing showed up. It’s been a nightmare to be honest not knowing what it could have been. May have lifted something or it could have been cycling related. Who knows! If you have no other symptoms other than the ache, it’s probably muscle based injury, but get it checked out by a specialist. It will go, just be patient. I thought it would have disappeared within 8 to 12 weeks after first noticing it, but 20 months! Take it easy!

@@stanley1554 sorry to hear that, it's a long time to suffer. Mine has been 18 months. The first 12 months it got progressively worse. I think that was because of playing sport and doing ab work. Mine started with a groin strain playing football, then spread up into pelvis, lower abs and even down the other groin. My psoas also locked up badly and I couldn't stretch it. After this video I stopped football and only ran slowly. I stopped any ab work that involved lifting straight legs, but introduced very gentle bent knee version of dead bugs. I also introduced lots of TVA work. Lots of yoga but nothing heavy on the lower abs. Lots of lunges, twists, bridge, then later 1 legged bridge. 6 months on from that change I'm steadily improving and very pleased. I can do small sets of almost straight legged ab work but am still very weak in the core but do lots of yoga. Tried playing football and regretted it. What's your experience?

I had a total hysterectomy since the uterus is a muscle. This helped alot but I still have pain on my left side and I can tell stress makes it worse. I have had the muscles on the left side numbed, not sure what this procedure is but it included a long needle. This helped but didn't last. Hope some gets some help from my comment.

I got it from playing soccer on a cold day without proper worm up. I thought it was hernia or sport hernia. Im glad it's just a muscle strained and no surgery required. I'm still healing after 4 months now.
I got this from walking after a hernia mesh surgery. I walked an hour every day and after 3 weeks I got insane pressure above my genitals and crazy wierd sensations around my entire abdominals... This does no go away with painkillers... I massaged the area and it felt real good. I also enjoyed laying down with my legs on a pillow with some ice packs. This is so crazy that testicles can swell from this!! I had to put more ice. It was shooting pain down my leg. I would sugget 3 weeks of staying in bed lol
I am have struggling with this for 2 months. Have seen 3 different doctors, none of which could give me a reason for my pain. This is 100% my problem and now that I know what it is, I will seek the appropriate help. Thank you so much.

Hi, should we have recovery days when doing these strengthening exercises and stretches?
I'm a 65-year old woman who decided to move from jogging to power walking, and started learning racewalking technique via KZread. With racewalking, you have to rotate your hips forward to put one foot in front of the other. This went OK for a few weeks, then suddenly I got the abdominal pain. I stopped the racewalking and went back to power walking, which for me is a very fast bouncy walk. Unfortunately, the pain is now being felt when I simply walk from here to there in my own home, when I sit up from lying on my bed and when I cough. I'm so glad I found this video - I was worried that something was wrong with my uterus or bladder. I'm going to get an ultrasound anyway, but now I truly believe this is just musculoskeletal pain and not coming from an internal organ.
