Running lots and now weird leg ache!!???help

[chloe]

I have what feels sort of like a pinched nerve in my leg, sometimes the pain is lower and sometimes higher, cant really pinpoint where it hurts and more importantly WHY!! this is the most depressing thing ever, nothing is worse than having to stop all training and not knowing if rest is all you need....or something more
anyone had a similar style of ache and most likely in relation to running lots?
any first hand experiences would be great appreciated!

I would go see a physiotherapist, sharing online is great but not exactly something you want to use to diagnose something which could prove to be important

Sucks to be injured, hope you'll be all right soon.

I agree with fredrikw, if you've had to stop all training and it's not going away, it's probably best to go see someone who knows what they are talking about (if you can find one ). Good luck.

yes yes i know, its actually only been two runs (two days) since i noticed it, and it is just a twinge at this stage,..im just overly paranoid of injury and running on a slight twinge which then leads to 6 weeks inforced rest!!hell no,i cant even decide if it hurts or as i said in the first post its just a pinched nerve type thing. Will rest again tommorrow(bringing the total to three stir crazy depressed non running days...) and see how it is on the weekend, if there still some discomfort i will go to the doctor on monday, like you say though Mr cleetus,..good luck with that, .the doctor will just say rest it, but i have to get the doctor to refer me to a Physio before i can go see one(on my health insurance that is) but yeah, sigh. so depressing.
thanks for the advice though guys, was mostly hoping someone would say-'oh yeah that happened to me rest three days and all will be back to normal!'
