Hi,

Here's the latest on my disk bulge injury

.

I had injured my L4-L5 disk in Nov 2006. Went through PT for about two months. Found a PauL Chek certified rehab trainer, worked on hip flexor flexibility, hip and back extensions, abdominal stability etc. Seemed to be geting better.

But for the last three weeks or so, I have pain when I sit for a while in the tail bone area, from the sacrum to coccyx to be specific. I can feel the pain also in both theglutes. I talked to the PT, he felt it could be coccydynia(sp?) but could not really figure it out.

Any suggestions or should I be seeing an ortho surgeon?

Let me add, I have not been hitting the weights or running or doing martial arts for the last 8 months. So can't really figure out how I have aggravated the injury. Hell, I haven't even done bodyweight squats or lunges.

Thanks

Kamal
