Help quick fix for hip flexor
Quote | Reply
Need any ideas for a hip flexor injury with a 1/2 Mary in one week. Pain is when I walk esp. after sitting for a few min. And runs down front of thigh and around front of hip. Anybody got any good remedies

Thanx

If you can skip the race I would. I had the same thing earlier this year and raced a half marathon in June. It hurt the entire race but actually didn’t inhibit my performance much at all, but I didn’t run pain free again until September.

Hip flexor is one of those areas that heals super slowly as even standing completely still engages it. I wish I had given it time to heal, I wouldn’t have had so many frustrating months where I knew I could technically go out for a run or ride, but it would just hurt.

Rest up and target the next race.
