I was doing my left leg splits in gymnastics about 7 weeks ago, I felt a pop under my leg near by butt area, it hurt for about 2 weeks in the same area but pain went away, it still hurts to tumble or do my left leg split. What did I do and how much longer untill it heals?
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. You may have tore your butt muscle while doing gymnastics.You need to give proper rest and then rehabilitation until you are pain free because if you strain further it may lead to complete tear which will be more serious problem. So give rest,take analgesics,and physiotherapy also is beneficial. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
