I first got sick about a year and a half ago. A few months in, I started to get pain in my joints. I'm not sure if this is because of some sort of auto-immune attack on my tissues, or whether it's pain from lack of exercise / the sedentary lifestyle I've been forced to adopt.
Then, a week or so ago, I started having low back pain and sciatica. To combat this, I started doing light yoga daily, focussing especially on my hamstrings and glutes. That helped with the pain, although it keeps coming back. But now, for the past few days my glutes have been sore. It hurts to sit down. This isn't healthy pain. It's a deep ache.
So I'm wondering...
Is this is happening because I spend all day either sitting down or laying on my back?
Or is this happening because I pushed my yoga routine too hard?
If it's because I'm sitting too much, the solution may involve MORE yoga.
If it's because I'm doing too much yoga, then the solution is obviously to do LESS yoga.
Thoughts?
