Steve2100 224 Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Hey Guys Ive been looking for a place to ask this question and I think I finally found it.. Has anyone had any experience with Pirformis Syndrome? Been having this pain in the ass since October. I think it started after hitting 200 golf balls when I was testing the Wilson D7 irons I was lucky(unlucky ) enough to win here. Ive never had any back or any other major injuries and for that Im grateful. But this persistent pain in my right cheek has me stumped. When I stop doing my treadmill and other excercises it calms down but once I start slowly walking on treadmill it occurs again. Been surfing youtube and been trying specific excercises for that area and have gone to massage therapy but still no luck.. Any help would be appreciated!

Honestly, your local GP is your best first stop. You may also consider consulting a chiropractor. 1 Quote In the bag: Driver: TSi2 Project X HZRDUS Smoke Black RDX 6.0 Fairway: 939X 15° Project X Even Flow Blue 6.0 Hybrid: 949X Pro 2 Hybrid Project X Even Flow Riptide 6.0 Hybrid: 939X 3 Hybrid Project X Even Flow Riptide 6.0 Irons: D7 Forged 4-GW Project X Catalyst 80 6.0 Wedge: Smartsole S Putter Sycamore 005 Wide Blade Bag: Alpha Convoy 514 Balls: MTB-X or Black Cart: CaddyLite ONE Ver. 8 God Bless America, God save the Queen, God defend New Zealand and thank Christ for Australia!

DrMJG 543 Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 No, did not stop my interest in Golf or this forum. Rather my body decided not to want to play I was forced to stop golf 8 hours after my last 18. For reasons still neither fully explained or understood, my body decided to go from a slightly higher blood pressure to a very low one. Not related in any way to Covid16. As a result, balance was not possible and for over a 4 week period I cold not stand without getting very dizzy, even moving my lower body was quite the challenge. A combination of re-doing my medications from before to now have me well on the way. Therapy 3x a week, combibnations with new drugs and my own stubbornness have me standing, no dizziness, ability to work on some mild golf related exercises. As compared to a week earlier, I am a new person. All medical indications, including my cardiologist, are pointing to a more than possible return to golfing by Labor Day. No promises just doable. I won't give weekly updates, but, thanks for understanding! 4 1 Quote In My BELDIN Green Bay Packer 1999 Super Bowl Champions Bag : G410 Plus, Alta Red CB 55 SR Flex, GX-7 14º(acting as a 3 wood), G400 4H, 5H.

bluesmandan76 331 Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 I’m still nursing my stupid right wrist. Keeping it braced as much as I can, soaking it in hot water every day, trying not to use it. The tendon sheath has to grow back before I can move forward and start pt.On the plus side I’m getting pretty good at swinging with just my lead left, and have improved my understanding of the swing in the process.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom the Golf Nut 6,223 Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 First let me start off by saying I am fine now. So here's the long story which took 2 years. I had a kidney stone that I could not pass. Went to the urologist and he sent me for a CT scan. Found a growth on my kidney the size of a golf ball. He does surgery to remove the stone. Sends me to a specialist for the kidney. Turns out to be kidney cancer and so starts the fight with the insurance company to cover the operation. In the meantime I go on a business trip and upon my return my 85 pound yellow lab was so excited to see me he jumped up on me and his paw went under my rib cage and knocked my breath away. Didn't think much of it. Went to bed and woke up a few hours later not feeling well. Tried to go to the bathroom and almost passed out on the way. Off to the hospital where they discovered that my spleen tore and I was bleeding out and almost died. So into ICU then to the operating room to have my spleen removed. Two weeks into healing and then got approval for the kidney operation. The next week right back in the hospital to have 1/2 my kidney removed. Like I mentioned I'm fine now. It took almost 6 months to play golf at an acceptable level. All I was allowed to do was chip and putt for a few months so that really helped my game. My handicap was around a 7 then and over the last year and a half got it down to my current 2.4. Pretty expensive way to drop my handicap, I dont recommended doing it that way. I would say to just practice your chipping and putting. 7 Quote Driver, G400 11* SR Flex 3 Wood, SLDR HL 17* R Flex 5 Wood, SLDR 19* R Flex 7 Wood, F6 22.5* R Flex 939x 5 hybrid Irons, 699 Pro's S Flex (6 - AW) JB Wedge 56* Wedge, CBX 60* Putter, Marksman Fang 35" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
