to cut a long tedious story short haev bascially been out of decent training for 5months with groin strain type injury.
physio said do 3 groin stretches 3 times a day hold them for 20secs then try a run in 10 days (now next monday)
Doing these stretches is making my groin strain ache more and mroe each day!
should i continue as per physio and try the run on monday, or stop and report back on next physio session...2 1/2 weeks away!

Try an osteopath?
aren't osteopaths for bones and things?
excuse my ignorance!!
after all i am a clown who has managed to string a groin starin on for 4months+
Mine was able to free up very tight muscles and knots in my back- all of which were manifesting themselves in my legs (groin and hip/buttock area latterly ) . Apparently I have a weak sacro illial joint
I get a reoccurence of a lower back pain every now anad again - but have only had to go back to the osteopath once to get a bit of serious treatment. the rest of the time- I now know that giving my thigh /bum area a good stretch will free up my back.
It may be that I just found a really good guy- and other physios do the same sort of thing - but ostepopath worked for me.
If you can get a local recommendation- and you dont feel your current guy is helping I would give it a go
I'm hoping this will turn out to be too...i had a tiny little 100m jog in work shoes and with no warming up yesterday and it just felt a bit tight, so maybe it's just really tight and needs loosenign by the stretching and running!
time will tell and next appointment 2 fridays time!
