I injured myself during physical activity. I feel a stretching pain in my buttock that extends down to my thigh. Do you have any advice?

If you have recently injured yourself during physical activity and are experiencing a stretching pain in your buttock that extends to your thigh, it is recommended to avoid stretching or contracting the muscle for a few days. Applying ice and Voltaren Emulgel™ to the affected area can help alleviate the pain. If the pain persists after 10 days, it is best to consult a physiotherapist sooner rather than later. Take care and have a good evening.
