The last couple of workouts my right thigh (in back, about halfway down between butt & knee) hurts in a something's-not-right kind of way on all of the single leg lunge/step-up exercises. I told myself two workouts ago that the couple of days rest in between would be enough (ok, I did HIIT on one of those days, so not entirely restful), but today it hurt as much if not more.

I guess I already know that the answer, in part, is to rest it - maybe take a longer break before my next workout than usual - but I want to minimize any gaps in my training. So my question is whether there is anything else I can do to help it heal?

Thanks.
