I've had nagging issues since October. I took two weeks off, still had issues, two more weeks off, still had issues. X-ray was clear. Finally got an MRI.
Livestrong says 6-8 weeks rest. My doc said one week off, one week light, then back to 100% (I wish). I'm currently at four weeks with no running. My gut tells me wait until Feb 1 to guarantee full recovery. The impatient side of me says start testing the waters.
Anyone been down this path? Specifically how long did you sit out, and what did your re-introduction phase look like?
