Incredibly Stubborn Hips

About a couple months ago my practice was going

pretty well. Then one day I was attempting kukutasana

and I felt something pop in my left hip/knee.

<br><br>As a result, my hip has stiffened up on the left

side. The worst effects wore off about about a week or

so.<br><br>My practice has continued unabatted, but "my

practice" as far as hip flexiblity goes has been set back

considerably. In other words, I'm about where I was when I

started consistent practice at the beginning of the

year.<br><br>Has anyone out there experienced an injury like this?

What to do? Sit in marichasana B for an hour a day?

Trayam,<br><br>I had a very similar

experience...I was attempting Buddhasana and I heard a similar

pop from my knee. Was quite painful at first, but it

subsided a short time afterwards...much the same as in

your case.<br><br>My doctor prescribed me some

gymnastics, and now, one year later, everything is back to

where it was (although I now stop at Eka Pada

Sirasana..which is quite enough thank you...)<br><br>To make a

long story short, I got my flexiblity back by sticking

to a program and not pushing too hard..and letting

nature take its course. It is probably a good idea to

see a doctor though.<br><br>good luck<br><br>Mark
