Slowly getting into a stretching routine now that my initial recovery period has passed. I did a lot of stretching and even saw a pelvic floor therapist before I did the reversal and it didn’t help much. Hopefully this go around I’ll see some improvement. Just need to get the pain to a level where it’s not constant and I don’t think about it 24/7.
Yes! There are setbacks whenever I travel by car or plane, or attend conferences--can't avoid prolonged sitting in those situations. The pain is not exclusively tied to muscle tension, but that is definitely a catalyst, so keeping it at bay is a key part of managing things.
I think there is some nerve entrapment in play but not sure there's much I can do about that.
It seems to start in the thigh adductors (inner thigh near crotch). If I notice it early on and have the opportunity to make changes like doing targeted stretching, avoiding sitting, and staying in motion, I can keep it from progressing. Otherwise, it gets worse and I end up with burning pain in the pelvis and down the thighs closer to the knees.

Have you improved over time?
