A member asked:
I have muscle knot close to my hip caused by kicking a ball. doctors say p.t. and ultra sound should help. is that true ? what's the name of knot?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bruished muscle: Unusual or awkward physical activity / motion can cause torn muscle fibers which cause the knot. Immidite 24 hr local ice and then heat, anti inflammatory meds and taking it easy for couple days followed by gradual increase of activity solves the problem. Obhiously size and location and severity matters in this equation.
