[Closed] Pain in upper thighs and back
I've been getting a horrendous aching in my upper thighs along with slight pain in my back
I've been out of action for a while due to flu, but my core strength is rubbish anyway
Could it be due to sitting around while I was ill?
Any exercises that could alleviate it until I can get to the docs or a physio?
It's a real dull ache, but it's strong, makes me feel a bit sick and I'm restless
Burpees and/or Bastardos will cure this malady.
Stretch your hip flexors?
Won't burpees be a bit harsh on a tight back . Free up your hamstrings and piriformis first .
If it's a dull ache down the backs of your buttocks and thighs it could be sciatica, which is caused by a back problem. I usually find that Neurofen or any Ibuprofen helps. You need to strengthen the muscles that support your spine.
psoas stretch, google it 🙂
