Tightness feeling

Bones, joints and muscles

hi all,
wondering if anyone has had the same problem, sitting an exercising while sitting is not to bad, but when i walk the further i walk the tighter my upper thigh seems to get. It feels like someone has placed a ring around my upper thigh an slowly tightening it to the stage where you can,t walk anymore. thanks in advance , rgds ian

Hi Ian,

I feel tight at times around the scar area, the more exercise the more I feel it. It feels like a pulling sensation at times, I am 33 weeks on Wednesday and surprised I still have these feelings, but it was a big op so I expect it is a long recovery inside.

hi jen,
i,m only 10 days post op now so very early days for me, as you say it is a funny feeling sensation alright. My scar is fine, Certainly is a big operation, your right though the more exercise you do , the more you feel it, i have to go back an see the surgeon on the 4th of next month so i will see what he has to say. all the best jen

Hi Ian
Perhaps masagging around the hip may help loosen up tight muscles. All the best

yes it’s your T band that is tight you should have your physical therapist stretch it for and show you how to stretch when it happens
