Supertraining

If all else fails, but before surgery, read one of the books by John Sarno, 
M.D.  Regardless, good luck!

  Subject: [Supertraining] Pain in Hip and L3-L4


  Its been 2.5 years since I first strained my right glut medius after 
  doing glut medius work and then doing straight leg dead lifts (warm 
  up weight). After a week of my torso leaning over to my left most of 
  the time, i felt almost normal but it took a year for me to run.
  9 months ago i reinjured it doing a no weighted squat (after doing 
  trigger point therapy work on my glutes the night before).

  Since then i have had chiro work, physio work and more trigger point 
  therapy work and had a sports doctor tell me (after a CT scan) that 
  they dont know what the problem really is as all they can see is L3-
  L4 has a minor/hair line bulging disc - my symptoms seem too chronic 
  for the diagnosis. I think the original glut med injury was actually 
  something occuring in L3-L4 now.

  I have no flexibility or obesity or fitness issues, i still exercise 
  3 days a week with weights mainly machines but cant get the right 
  help or diagnosis from anyone. Ive spent too much money and today 
  woke up as stiff as a board, with my torso leaning over to my right 
  hip.......I can push my torso back, but i think the gluteal nerve at 
  L3-L4 is compressed and hurts and certainly doesnt like it. By the 
  way the impingement gets chronic when i try standing up after sitting 
  down especially in buckets chairs.
