The pain was always in my left leg/foot/big toe never the right leg.
I just don't know what to do, what's going on with the R leg now!!??
Always had pain in neck, L shoulder/arm but now this.
Has anyone experienced this after a massage, is it just a coincidence? who knows, I'm tired of all this pain! 
Am seeing a neurosurgeon next month but am so frustrated. |
Doesn't sound good - try another masseur. Seriously though if a massage is causing radicular pain, get some medical advise before having any more.
If I was rich enough I would have one every day - I know a bloke who does deep muscle massage and it has a really good effect for me, loosens me up and I feel much better for it, the benefits don't last long though, so I can't justify the cost (£30 - 30GBP - 40 Euros - 51 dollars) very very expensive!
