Last night the extreme pain reared it's ugly head after working to bring it down for exactly a month. My balancing act consists of bursitis in both hips, causing both IT bands and hips to be very tight regardless of exercises and stretches. The left side has the IT band catching at the knee and causing such bad pain I cannot walk. When the pain first got extremely bad it caused a fibromyalgia flare at the same time. I eat a balanced anti-inflammatory diet and use curcumin and red light along with many other natural tools to help bring the inflammatory reaction down. Unfortunately releasing the tightness in the hip muscles isn't easy with so much pain. My massage therapist could barely touch my hips and suggested gently using a roller as possible daily to work at the layers of muscle. If anyone has experience with this issue I am open to all suggestions and new tools to help. Thank you in advance!🫶
