quote:
and playing most of the time the PDL posture. Since this winter my thight bone is hurting a bit. Only if I stop playing and start walking. It passes soon after a few steps.About 10 cm, 3,94 inch under the beginning of the bone at the back/side Ever experienced that? I had something similar a few years ago when I spent too much time practising guitar sitting at the edge of a chair without any padding, with right leg on a leg stool. It got the sciatic nerve irritated, felt as pain at that specific point at the back around the contact point, but deep. Once that got irritated, I had to be patient - even though I changed my sitting and added padding, it took months for the pain to stop appearing as soon as I sit in a similar position, even with padding. A sciatic nerve irritation goes away very slowly; but it does go away (and maybe goes away quicker if you identify the problem earlier). But what you have sounds different in that you say you only get the pain after you get up and for a few steps - maybe you caught it early. I'd get it within a minute of sitting down and it will linger for many minutes after I got up. In retrospect, what I had been doing was really stupid, of course - basically sitting on a hard edge of wood digging into my leg for hours on end. Here's a picture of a man's back side with semi-transparent muscles to enable visualization of all systems, the yellow giant thing is the sciatic nerve; see how it comes from deep to shallower toward the skin as it comes in between the gluteus maximus and the long head of the biceps femoris at the back of the thigh; that's where it seems most vulnerable to compression and where I got mine irritated. BTW, I would have thought that playing in the Paco position would be a relief in that it hides the sciatic nerve a bit (compared to playing with the right leg on a stool as I did) and moves the contact point more at the gluteus. So again what you have sounds a bit different and maybe you need it professionally diagnosed as Simon suggests. I mean, it is possible you still have sciatic nerve irritation as Paco's position may have its own issues from rotation and compression somehow causing it.
