Fix Your Pinching Hip Pain With Squats

pain No Comments »

.Over the years I have treated dozens and dozens of people seeking help with their squat. A particularly common issue people report is pinching hip pain in their hip/groin region at the bottom of the squat position. There are a handful of orthopedic diagnoses people with this issue get handed/labeled to explain what may be going on:
1. Labrum pathology
2.Femoral Acetabular Impingement (FAI)
3. Hip Flexor Tendinitis
4. Hip Osteoarthritis
.
🚨PSA🚨these labels more often than not hinder, not help people get back to squatting. For too often I find myself educating people in the clinic that it is OK TO SQUAT, we just need to analyze what is going on and make MODIFICATIONS if needed.
.
In this post, I point out two of the MOST COMMON REASONS why people experience pinching symptoms with squatting.
❌ Loss of bracing
❌ Lack of pelvic control/optimal position
.
Let’s talk about bracing and why this is important. Bracing, especially with heavy squatting, provides stability to the spinal column. Bracing also provides stability to the pelvic region, which ends up influencing hip position. If you lose your brace at the bottom of the squat, it can affect the femoral head position relative to the pelvis and potentially cause these symptoms. So follow along in the video to learn a simple tip to work on bracing with sit squats.
.
What about pelvic control and pelvis position? There is a lot of debate about butt winking with squatting and we have covered this topic in other posts/articles. Personally, I only focus on this when someone is having symptoms in the pelvic region with squatting, otherwise, I don’t get too caught up with it. Ultimately, you need to be able to control movement in this area. Follow along with this video to work on body awareness and control of this region with sit squats.

Hip Pain at Night: Causes and solutions for lateral hip pain and groin pain lying on your side

pain No Comments »

If your hip hurts while you’re trying to sleep on your side, physical therapist Christine Koth explains what could be causing hip pain at night and how to adjust your position to get some sleep.

If you have outer hip pain, such as hip bursitis, you may feel pain either on the hip you’re laying on, or the hip you’re not laying on.

If you have pain in the hip you’re laying on, pain caused by direct pressure on the joint, then pay attention to your mattress surface. You may find relief by adding a memory foam pad or mattress topper to your mattress to help distribute your weight more evenly and provide extra cushion for that hip joint.

If you have pain on the hip you’re not laying on, try sleeping with a pillow between your knees and ankles. It may take some time to find a position that works with your pillow, and you may even have to try out pillows of different densities. The goal is to have your legs rest parallel to each other, so your knee is not lower than your hip. This can be accomplished by using a fat pillow, resting lengthwise from knees to ankles.

Sleeping with a pillow between your knees and ankles is a good way to relieve SI joint pain while sleeping on your side, as it reduces the strain on muscles attaching to the top of the thigh bone (greater trochanter). This strain on the hip is directly related to tight hip flexors (specifically a tight iliacus muscle), which causes an anterior pelvic rotation, and pulls on the lower back and hip joint.

Whatever the pillow position you choose, the main purpose of sleeping with the pillow is to alleviate the pull on your hip’s soft tissues and keep your pelvis in a natural alignment.

When you allow your leg to rest naturally while lying down, there is a slight dip that enables your legs to connect and rest. When this happens, your leg’s natural pull adds more pressure to the muscles around your hip joint, which can then cause hip pain when sleeping.

Created by a physical therapist, the Hip Hook is the world’s first tool designed for psoas release AND iliacus release. Just a few minutes a day with the Hip Hook can provide long-term pain relief to the lower back, hips, tailbone, knees, and feet. Tightness in the iliacus and psoas is directly connected to many different kinds of pain throughout the body because its tightness rotates the pelvis and twists the body out of alignment.

Patient has been experiencing gas pain for the past 30 years. The pain has gotten worse in the past 7-8 years where it would wake him up in the middle of the night every 2-3 hours.

Meticulous structural test and Gonstead examination reveals structural abnormalities at the 5th lumbar and 6th dorsal vertebrae. The 5th Lumbar nerve obstruction resulted in constipation that led to increase bowel gas. The 6th Dorsal nerve obstruction resulted in his pyloric sphincter to be wide open when it’s suppose to be closed. As a result of that dysfunction, the bowel gas went into his stomach which is called trapped gas syndrome or magenblase syndrome.

Correction of the 5th Lumbar and 6th Dorsal vertebra led to restoration of 5L and 6D nerve function. Reduced constipation results in reduce bowel gas and with properly functioning closed pyloric sphincter = no more gas pain and restful sleep!

What to do for lower abdominal pain after contact? – Dr. Teena S Thomas

pain No Comments »

Pain in the lower abdomen one week after contact he first thing is to see a gynecologist, we have to rule out any pelvic inflammatory diseases, any infections, any sexually transmitted disease. So unless the gynecologist sees, or if there is lot of pus discharge, unless a pus culture is done, you cannot be treated for it. Any infection it can be appropriately treated. So specifically in a young girl, in a reproductive age a group, any infection has to be treated more than what is actually required, because we are worried about people with chronic pelvic diseases and fallopian tube blockages. So if there is a pain post one week of contact, the girl has to see the gynecologist to see if there is any infection that persists and appropriate treatment has to be given for the same.

Lower Back Pain During Sex – Position Modifications

#lowbackpainsex #backache #lowerbackpain

I decided to write an article about reducing lower back pain while having sex because it’s a conversation many of my clients are too embarrassed to ask, and I am a little afraid to bring up.

The reality is, your lower back pain is not only affecting you. It could be affecting your relationship with your significant other. Relationships are hard enough without the sexual frustration creeping into the mix.

Lower back pain affects the frequency of coitus. The World Health Organization regards healthy sexual relationships as a measurement of disability and overall health. ~84% of men suffering from lower back pain reported a decrease in frequency. ~34% of women said the same. 1,2

The fear of throwing your back out after a night of sex is natural. You may not be willing to risk laying on the floor for three days for a bit of pleasure. That is an entirely reasonable way of thinking.

If this is you, you are not the only one to feel this way.

Men and women alike are less sexually active during their low back recovery journey. Even an orgasm can bring on back pain for some men and women.

Some blog articles on this subject can be a little technical, while others can be too racy. I’ll do my best to make this article as informative, classy, and entertaining as possible. If you are not over 18 years old, exit this page now!

While I will only be focusing on mechanical factors of lower back pain during sex, I’m fully aware that more aspects could be contributing to your lower back pain.

You should always be examined by a sports chiropractor, physical therapist, medical doctor, or orthopedic who is willing to take a complete medical history and perform a thorough physical exam on your spine and hips.

This process can take between 45-90 minutes in most situations.

In this article, I will cover what I have learned to work well for my clients. While sex positions can be triggers for your lower back, other positions can be painless or possibly even therapeutic.

What sex positions your spine can tolerate can be found depends on your diagnosis and the results of thorough stress testing of your spine. X-rays and MRIs do not tell us the whole story.

Flexion Intolerant Low Back Pain
Read for men or women with lower back pain durning sex
A flexion intolerant lower back is simply that.

Your spine does not tolerate flexion/ rounding. While we can label this as a specific diagnosis, many lower back diagnoses can create flexion intolerance.

I learned of this classification terminology from reading Dr. Stuart McGill’s work years ago, which is more descriptive of what type of positions, postures, and activities would increase or decrease your lower back pain. Positions of intimacy can be assessed and paired with your spine’s tolerances.

As I mentioned before, a thorough medical history taking and physical examination can help you understand which of the three situations describes your situation.

Stuart McGill’s lay public book “Back Mechanic” is an excellent resource on more information about other ways to settle a flexion intolerant low back. The best money you can spend on a self-help lower back book!

Contrary to popular beliefs, spooning is not the safest way to protect your lower back during intercourse.

Let’s first dive into the three common lower back situations you may fall into in their “textbook” form.

Note: Nobody is a textbook case. 🙂

Afterward, we will cover how this information can help choose a better sex position for men and women.

In the medical history taking, there are lots of clues that you can give a skilled medical professional that your spine does not tolerant rounding, but these are not exclusive either:

With a flexion intolerant lower back you may notice you have lower back pain with the following situations:
More pain first hour in the morning
Morning stiffness
Worse with washing dishes
Bending forward to touch your toes
Hamstring stretching is painful
Hard to put on shoes (in fact, you may not even tie your laces)
Prolonged sitting hurts
Getting up from a chair is painful
Walking hurts the first few steps and then becomes comfortable
Pushing shopping carts is painful
Intense pain with coughing, sneezing, or going #2
“Bad Posture”
Deadlifting
Back squatting
Activities that generally feel good are:
Walks
Standing
Laying on your belly
Laying on your stomach propped up on your elbows, as if you’re reading a book
Computer/ laptop work on the floor on your belly
Lying face-up on a firm bed or the ground
Stretching your hip flexors
“Good posture”
Flexion intolerant lower backs tend to be related to lumbar spine disc herniations, protrusions, extrusions, or prolapse.

There are so many different aches and pains of pregnancy that are normal to feel, but that doesn’t mean it’s fun, and by the end, you’re just ready to be done with them all. One thing that a lot of pregnant ladies feel is lower back pain. As the pregnancy progresses and your belly gets bigger, the curve in your back is exaggerated and you start to compensate for the growing weight in the front by shifting the center of your gravity back, and this can put a lot of pressure and strain on our lower backs. In addition, you have bad posture, you walk funny, and this all contributes to back pain.

With that said, lower back pain can also be a sign of preterm labor. So if it’s not a problem you’ve had, it’s not associated with sitting for a long time or standing for a long time (that might just make your back hurt naturally), pay attention to it and look for other signs of preterm labor, like if you have lower back pain, lower abdominal cramping, abdominal tightening, if you feel pressure in your stomach or down low, if you have any bleeding, spotting, leaking of fluid, or an increase in discharge associated with the pain – those are all signs of preterm labor and you should call your doctor and get checked out. They’ll decide if it’s just normal pregnancy pain or if its due to something more serious like preterm labor that needs to be investigated.

Another type of pain that’s typical to feel during pregnancy is just generalized pelvic pain or maybe a tender pubic bone. This is because there’s a ligament in the front of your pelvis and your body starts to release a hormone called relaxin. Its job is to relax that pelvic joint and help the pelvis open slightly. It increases the internal diameter of your pelvis and increases the chances that the baby will fit through and be born vaginally. So if you’re just having generalized pelvic pain, you feel like your pubic bone is tender, it’s making you waddle, you feel like your hips are going to pop out of place, that’s your body’s way of trying to increase the chances of delivering vaginally, so just tell yourself that (overall) it’s a good thing, but it’s not very comfortable. If it gets severe though, talk with your doctor about it, because some ladies do have more separation at that joint than they should have. They can look into it and decide if anything needs to be done.

A 3rd type of pain that’s normal to have during pregnancy is called round ligament pain. Your uterus isn’t just hanging out in your belly. It’s actually attached to various parts by ligaments, and these ligaments can be thought of as elastics, and as your uterus grows and stretches, they do too. If you have sudden changes in movement or if you just change movement, like you go a different direction, you’re standing up out of a car, you’re getting off your chair, you’re on the floor and get up – all those sudden changes in direction and movement can cause those ligaments to tweak a little bit and that can cause very severe and intense pain right away along the track of that ligament. So usually, it’s one-sided, associated with movement, and it’s felt in your groin area, like from about the level of your bellybutton on the side of your abdomen down into the pubic area, so if this is what you’re experiencing, it’s probably round ligament pain. Usually it goes away as fast as it came on, but some women do just have a more dull pain that lasts a longer period of time, so again, you’re looking for something that’s one-sided. If you’re having cramping in your lower abdomen, again, a concern would be preterm labor.

So what can you do about all these aches and pains? If you’re pretty sure that it’s not preterm labor, there are things you can do at home. For lower back pain, you can use a heating pad for 10-15 minutes at a time just at the side of discomfort. You can take a warm bath before bedtime – that can do wonders. If that’s not enough, then you can talk to your doctor about over-the-counter pain relievers that are safe during pregnancy. For sleep, there’s a lot you can do to position your back and your pelvis appropriately so that it’s more comfortable. Get a firm pillow or roll up a blanket, tilt yourself to one side and put that behind your back hip, and then also get a pillow or another rolled up blanket and put it underneath your belly (so that it’s not pulling and causing you to have pain), and then also put something in between your knees, make sure your head is well-supported, and this will help you sleep on your side (which you should do during pregnancy) and hopefully help you be more comfortable.

In summary, if you’re experiencing pain that you haven’t had before, it seems new or concerning to you, you’re not sure what it’s due to, listen to your body. Call your doctor, and after asking you more specific questions and performing an exam, they’ll decide if further investigation or treatment is warranted.
