Has anyone ever experienced issues with their SI joint(s)?
I think I'm currently suffering with a locked SI joint on one side which is becoming increasingly painful over time and I feel is making me crooked in my riding (and general life).
I have issues which my hips/bum anyway but have never been to the doctors or physio as I have usually been OK managing it with ibuprofen. This has prompted me to wonder if those issues may relate to the issue I think I'm having now.
I often get massages (from the BF) to help with the pain in my hips and often just get him to push down as hard as possible which seems to release some pain (but often makes my legs go a bit numb afterwards!). I'm wondering if he may have pushed too far which might have caused this!
I have a couple of questions
A. Is this something I could approach the doctors with or should I go straight to a physio?
B. Has anyone experienced anything similar and how did you best manage it/what was the outcome?
