    Re: Todays Injuries

    Well, I am NOT happy.
    I have awful buttock discomfort.........piriformis??
    It came on during a lovely head-torcher on Thurs.
    Ibuprofen has been required.

    Any suggestions as to an overnight cure........I am limping.
    BOO.
    Does anyone know if a "courtesy buttock" is availiable on the NHS? (I will return it in good (ish) condition once my own is healed.)

    Re: Todays Injuries

    got a trapped nerve in my back which is giving me jip in the buttock (no smirking!) seeing a physio which seems to be costing me a fortune! not sure if i should go to an osteopath too just as a second opinion?,,,, any advice anyone?

    Re: Todays Injuries

    I would be collaborative with your physiotherapist (open communication is vital). If you don't trust/understand/agree with what you're being told, or what is being done.......say so (in a +ve way!).

    If you know (by reputation) a good osteopath, then it's worth a go, but don't see two independent clinicians simultaneously without discussion...........How will you know what's working/not working??

    Other sporting folk are usually pretty good at recommending someone who is skilled in the area of sports realated problems.........?ask the forum for a trusted clinician (of whatever variety) in your area?

    If some of this helps, I'm glad...........I am still in need of a "courtesy buttock" (see my post above), so perhaps we could share a working pair between us??
    Can I have Friday to Sunday as time-share??
    Best of luck.

    Re: Todays Injuries

    thanks for the advice chugger,

    i guess im just a bit synical when it comes to asking my physio wheather i should see a osteopath,,, like he's actually going to recommend i go else where.

    i know you cant put a price on health but i really cant afford it! although i'm going to ring my occupational health rep to see if i can get something through my job.

    hope your buttock heals quickly!

    Good luck!
    I still think that if you are going to spend money, go and see someone with a good reputation.........someone who regularly works with "athletes" and has some idea of what you're approach (mental and physical) to recovery is like.
    In my experience a therapist (of whatever sort) who regularly has contact with sportspoeple will be used to be questionned and taking the very collaborative approach we pushy folk need.
    I work in the NHS and would never have anything said against it, but your average clinician there will not have a huge number of sporting people on their caseloads..........I know this is a generalisation and "all generalistaions are rubbish".

    Let us know how you get on with occy health!

    Re: Todays Injuries

    well occupational health basically told me that since I've had 5 sessions with my private therapist then referring me to their physio wouldn't make any difference because they only offer 3 fast track sessions, i told them i didn't mind only 3 session as it would at least give me a second opinion/confirmation to what i've already been diagnosed with. occy health advised me to see my gp which i am going to do monday, god bless nhs! my wife works for them too.

    why is there always a temptation in the back saying just go for a run anyway, especially since it doesn't hurt when i run! just afterwards!

    Re: Todays Injuries

    The temptation is always there becuse a) we sometimes get away with it and b) as a person who runs, ignoring pain is part of what we have trained ourselves to do.
    I still have need of a "courtesy buttock" and dare not run....some soft tissue massge has helped......is it worth a call to the physiotherapist??
