Hello, fellow chlorine heads,
I coach a masters team out in Highland Park, IL (Equinox Masters), and one of my swimmers has some issues going on with her hip and back. :cane: Though it was a pre-existing condition prior to her becoming a swimmer, it seems to hurt on and off during and after our practices. Here's what she has to say about it:
"After swimming, I frequently feel intense lower back stiffness which is usually accompanied by a tightness/dull persistent pain in the periformis region/side of my right hip.
During swimming, I sometimes feel a twinge in my lower right back when turning to breathe."
Any input to help my swimmer would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Bill
