Why do my hips hurt after i try to do the splits? could i have pulled something?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hip flexibility: Doing the splits requires excellent flexibility of the muscles and tendons around your hip. Pain after trying to do the splits may simply indicate that you need to stretch more thoroughly. If you experienced a sudden onset of pain after trying to do the splits, you may have in fact pulled a muscle.
