Hey guys,
I have developped a muscle imbalance from squatting for years and that lead me to develop pain in my right knee.
I then went to a sports doc and i've been diagnosed with the left side of my hip being much higher than my right side, about a year and half ago. He then told me to go see a kinesiologist, that he would prescribe me stretching along with a few exercises that would help. I went and saw one, he prescribed me stabilisation exercises and stretching, which I did and feel like it helped because I was terribly not flexible nor did I have good stabilisators from never directly training them.
I went back to squatting a few months ago, and it felt okay.
However, yesterday, I literally felt that I wasn't pushing with the same force with both legs. I'm scared that within five or six more squatting sessions i'll re-enter into having knee problems.
I'm seeing a few possibilites that might help my case:
1. Do only single leg work.
2. Try and get my hips balanced by a physiotherapist or someone of that nature (I do not have insurance at the moment so that option is put on hold).
3. Get some kind of sole for the shorter leg
Have any of you seen this before?
