Hello guys,
I know that are worse injuries, muscle, ligament and labral tears, stress fractures, even broken bones. But in the maybe not-so-serious palette of injuries that you can produce to yourself while training (exclude bike crashes and any other traumatic injury associated to a fall, animal bites, etc.), any type of tendi-whatever or pain of the psoas, is maybe the most feared injury? I mean it because:
So far, I am under psoas pain for the last 3 months after a few weeks of high intensity workouts (running and biking). I tried to recover while training as I had a couple of HIM in October, but there was no recovery so 8 weeks after fighting with it, I had to end the tri season. Another 4 weeks with very little training with sub-zero intensity and no running, but not yet fully recovered. I am streching daily, even started yoga, and keep on working in the gym (never stopped).
I need to know if there is light at the end of the tunnel, how long did it take you to recover, and what did you do that made the change onto fully funtional again. Please, I am desperate.
Thank you very much.

I mean it because:
- It takes a long time to sort it out
- It is virtually unreacheable to the hand
- Standard tendinitis treatments do not always work as it it not possible to touch the tendon nor the muscle itself
- Seems it is going to last forever as cannot know what actually is going on deep there
- Tears, fractures, and muscle strains, seem to have a known time of recovery once you know what you have
- Other than stretching and excentric exercises, no other solution and with no guaranteed of early healing
