I have been dealing with the same thing for a year and a half. Started with tight left adductor then moved to left glute lower back and hamstring. More tension and stiffness than pain but still bothersome. Always there but seems to be variable and correspond somewhat with my stress level. Had...

Hi FreeB. I have had left adductor/glute/hip tension for over a year in the same location. Just changes prominence from glute to adductor to low back. Also the level of tension is variable to some degree but always there. I had MRIs, blood tests and exam by 3 different doctors who couldn’t find...

Thank you so much for the reply TG957! It’s nice to have such a great community for support when the going gets tough

Thanks for the encouragement birdsetfree. It’s difficult after a year of the constant tension but I know many have suffered much longer. Also I do have moments of doubt that set me back. There’s obviously no logical explanation other than TMS.

All great advice! Today my left leg is tensed up and tingling. Gonna power through and carry on

Thanks for the reply. Yes it’s very difficult for me to remove the stress from my life. The pandemic, highly stressful job, day to day life and worrying about my hip glute tension (though I try not too), takes a toll. I have been trying to set aside 20 mins a few times a week to meditate and...
