Hip/Pelvis, Sciatica

2008-03-29 – 2008-04-14

Grade: 2

Over did it at the big 'O' after straining my back at the odyssey the weekend before. Had to pull out of the race

Diagnosis: Bike seat up too high causing hyperextendion at neck and lower back. Winged and rotated scapular pressing on nerve causing numb fingers. Lower spine compensating causing mild lordosis and scoliosis causing muscle spasm in qualratus lumbourn, piriformus and a deep flexor along the spine.
Reflection: Don't try to do so much all at once.
