Gracilis Pain
OK, following our auto accident (rear ended at a stop light) a couple weeks ago, I noticed a sharp pain at the very top of my left leg while riding (which I've learned is the gracilis muscle that runs from the pubic bone to the knee). I then noticed that when riding, my left leg was one inch closer to the cross bar than my right leg
Here's the deal:
- I went to the chiropractor and he made adjustments to my hip alignment and things got straighter on the bike, but the gracilis pain persisted in my left leg.
- Today, I went for another adjustment...and in making the adjustment, my right gracilis went into orbit on pain (like tears to my eyes
)
Apparently the misalignment caused some kinetic imbalances.
I neglected to ask him what sort of exercises I could do to help this...and can't get back to him until next week.
Does anyone have ideas or sites that might help guide me?
