i believe i strained my iliotibial band during a ballet rehearsal because we were not properly warmed up. it didn't hurt during rehearsal, but i noticed it the next morning. and like an idiot, i went to ballet anyway in hopes to gently stretch it out. but alas, i could not complete my class...
anyway, my rehearsal when i injured it was saturday... today is monday, and it's still a little sore. i've been rubbing it, massaging it, rolling the ball on it, and applying topical muscle relaxers like "IcyHot"
i have a Nutcracker performance on saturday and I want to know if it will be better by then...
also, should i avoid ballet classes this whole week? or go and gently try to stretch it before the show. i'm unsure what to do here
thanks
