Does anyone have advice? >I fractured my pubic bone, and after lots of xrays, bone scans and MRIs, my doctor said I basically have to wait for it to heal. He said I can ride and exercise, but to "listen to my body." If it hurts a lot, then I should stop. Anyway, I've tried a few different saddles, I've avoided riding (yuk), I'm doing physical therapy, I'm icing when swollen, I'm taking Ibupropen, etc, etc. My hips, inner/outer thighs, pelvic area and lower back get very sore after physical activity. My doctor said these symptoms are because of the injury. He said all your muscles and tendons are attached to this area, so it hurts all around it. >I'm "allowed" to use my body, but the soreness and pain is a bummer. This started in December 2002, and now it's October 2003 and I'm frustrated. The doctor said this is a common injury, and that it takes a really LONG time to heal. Any comments or advice is appreciated.
Thanks.
