Hi!

I have got this typical butt/hamstring problem. A pain deep down in my left side. The muscle is now very short and I have a lot of pain in some postures. What I have seen in other questions is that I am overstreched or that the muscle is hurt in some way.
I started hot yoga a month ago, and I just love it. I have been serching for something new in my life because I was so tired of all the other sports that I have done. I tryed Hot yoga and I am like I said before, in love.
The pain started 2 weeks ago and it is now very frustating to have this pain so my question is:
Do I have to quit the Yoga and just rest to make it disappear or can I still do it, but more careful?

/thank you!

Hi Fia

Welcome to the forum!

Do you have to stop and rest? That depends on the problem. Are you feeling acute pain? You seem to have read quite a few posts. If it’s a hamstring weakness then get that checked out. If it’s technique issue then check out and employ the techniques addressed in Opening Up Your Hamstrings With Hot Yoga.

There are other poses that have related pose mechanisms to that referred to in the post above. When you go to class next, work out where and when in class you feel the problem and I can hopefully point you in the right direction.

Namaste
Gabrielle 🙂
