Long tale small… In a car accident 2 yrs. ago. Have pain on right side only in the T-12 region, hip/butt/low back. Occasionally sciatic nerve aggervated. And the muscles into the groin area flare up. Diagonis have been Myofasial pain and sacroilialiitis. But I’m thinking it may be something more or something else going on. I’ve had cortisone injections in my piriformis, illopsoas, near and in my S.I. Joint, the gluteous medius, the muscle by my hip and a sciatic nerve block. I still have muscle spasms and weakness in those areas. I’ve gone to the chiropractor, and a PT. What the heck is going on?? Why am I having all these problems? Is there something that I am or the doctor is missing?? I need some suggestions on what I should or shouldn’t be doing. This is really got me annoyed to place it mildly

i too was in a car accident but closer to 3 yrs ago and still have pain which ive been told i will always have. I get sciatica on a regular basis and after all their injections and medications and crap i found the best way to fix it is hot packs, anti-inflam cream and a over the counter anti inflam pain relief gel cap called act-3. that with a couple of days rest and then getting up and stretching did me the world of excellent.
For ur muscle pain the only things i can suggest besides regular heat packs is to strengthen them…from what i was told(as u have probably too) after we do a serious injury and dont use that muscle for some time it loses condition and it deteriorates so even though it hurts a bit we have to get it moving…walking in a swimming pool might be a simple place to start…i hope this helps…it did me when i lost complete use of my arm and had 8months of hell to make it work again.
I reckon the most vital thing right now is that yu get some new studies ( MRI, CAT Scan, EMG ) done to see what , if any , changes have occurred.
