Hi everyone (, and sorry for crappy English),
I would like to hear some opinion about nagging problem I am currently experiencing.
I am 31 year old, male, I have been lifting for 2 years now. Currently I train according to intermediate template by Jordan.
About 4 months ago I tried to catch up my old numbers after lengthy viral infection. During one set of heavy deadlifts I started to feel pinching pain in my left hip on eccentric. I thought it is nothing serious and finished three more sets. Next day however I felt nagging pain in my glute area even when at rest and it persisted for whole week or two.
I decided to deload then not do deadlifts and heavy squats at all for some time then I switched for front squats. Now I’m trying to slowly work my self back up but I can still feel some stiffness during and shortly after heavy deadlifts/squats. I can also feel it when I try to stand on left leg and bend forward (to tie my shoe on other leg).
Even though things are getting better and “symptoms” are pretty mild, I was just wondering if anyone experienced anything similar? Or what the diagnosis could be?
I am also wondering If I should continue to train through it", It seems like it’s not getting worse and my numbers are very slowly getting up, but sometimes I get nervous about it (yes I am hypochondriac).
I would be glad for any suggestions. I could definitely cope up with mild hip discomfort I just don’t want make things worse in long run and manage this right.
