L Hip/Pelvis, Hip Pain

2022-02-15 – 2022-05-02

Grade: 2

Unsure cause (perhaps step exercises?), left hip socket pain - pretty sharp, doesn't feel structural - perhaps a strained muscle. It feels much like that injury 10 years ago that started all my injury saga. Sometimes hurts when walking, or even sitting wrong. I could power through, but to be safe I am stopping running and skiing (iced up now anyhow), taking ibuprofen, icing.
That was written around March 3. Then tried running and it got way worse! Went to PT through May 5, which finally got things better (stretching, strengthening).

No exercise for a week, ice, ibuprofen. Then i biked feb 20 and had some pain, so took 21st off, and 22nd seemed ok so gently tried again. I will be cautious.
But a week later (March 3, perhaps spurred by a 2 hr hike?) got worse, went to Dr (see note March 7), changed treatments.
