As mentioned before, I have re-injured a pulled muscle in my butt-area. (Judging from my very limited knowledge of anatomy, it seems to be one of the deep muscles that control articulation, like the gluteus medius...) One of the things that leads to this is apparently bad shoes. Anybody have experience with this or recommendations? Should I continue on my rest-ice-Advil routine or get professional help? Ask Inky, I turn into the Hulk when I don't run :D
