Hip Injury????

Hey guys....so I ran 7 miles the other night (nothing out of the ordinary, although the surface may have been uneven) and now I am suffering from the WORST pain in my hip flexor. I literally woke up and hobbled out of bed. ITs been 3 days and still not feeling better. Been stretching, ice and advil. The bottom line is I cannot run at all and it hurts alot to just walk. (Not good news as I am training for a marathon).

So I am thinking I should get it checked out. Should I wait it out or just go today?

Re: Hip Injury????

Take the week off and see how it feels. I have similar issues and have learned to ice the hip after long runs even if it doesnt have any problems because I am pron to this type of injury. Stay off it and see if it gets any better in a couple more days. Keep icing it. Good Luck!!
