My right thigh really aches at the moment. It comes and goes, and at first it felt like the pain was just at the front, but I attempted a run just now and I had pain all the way up the outside of my thigh at the side of my pelvis. I decided to be sensible and rest it for two days.
The thing is, it has been aching for a couple of weeks now, but once I get warmed up it's fine so I have pushed on with training. I really don't want to stop training at all, and have even got a tubigrip and been rubbing deep heat into it twice a day, but so far that hasn't made a lot of difference.
I was wondering if anyone else has had anything like this, I looked it up and it sounds like a pulled quadriceps muscle, but can I continue training with it? In other words, is two days enough?
Plus, I had the twinge since my first long run, and think it might just be because I put more emphasis on my right leg than my left one. What can I do about that?
Would really appreciate any help because it is really starting to worry me
