I've been using Reflexology.(Quick duck here comes Frosty with his flame thrower set on megga solar blast.)The specific area would be the heel and the ankle.But I find that working on the outter edge of thefront shin from the ankle to the knee is inclusive in the need for relief.Also, if you would have this problem when sexually aroused it might be helpful to use a full body massage to help out before the intimacy.Sex should be a freeing and releasing energy and the reason a lot of people have trouble with sex is because they are not flexable enough.Full body massages before sex pretty much helps to get that back on track.Even if it just makes momentary endorphins and you ride the high of the endorphin rush of the moment.Personally a little endorphin is better than none in my book. Now it might not be the total answer to the whole problem but it sure does help out and it sure can make the whole experience somewhat more pleasant. So pity be to the over burdened partner who must bear the gruesome work of the full body massage before intimacy.Oh well, it's rough medicine but surely there must be relief somewhere.I would suggest some text on Tantric Massage to help instruct in that field of knowwlege.When people have lower back problems the glutes are a very important key in freeing up the spasms of the lower back.So also focusing on massage and gluteal strengthening exercises would be another key.All this time I've been thinking the pain was related to internal pressure from the stool. But of course, now that I stop and think......it makes sense that the spasm is at the root of the problem and it makes sense why I feel better on a 4 hyoscyamine day.It also makes sense why swimming made me feel better too.So doing exercises to lengthen and strengthen the glutes would be the answer for creating optimim use of the muscles to support the place where the spasm lives and the spasm might only be happening because of lack of support.I had not looked at it that way at all but now it gives me some new thought.If you could get a doctor to sign off for some physical therapy you could learn how to do the gluteal exercises correctly. They have to be done right and for that you would need to be shown. It's just too complicated to read or look at a book with pictures because you need a coach to read your body and tell you how it's moving.Even a chiropractor might be able to show you the right movement.If you have had any number of structural injuries then the keeping of the support foundation might be challenging due to the misalignment from injuries.Like I have a lot of athletic injuries. I have to work diligently on keeping my support flexable or I curl up and spas.I've had pelvic injuries where my bones were thrown forward on one side of the body and thrown backwards on the other side. For me diligence and body work are pretty much a functional necessity.I can't ever put on a lot of weight either. My bones just hurt too much so taking note of body mass also might be a key here. And of course, keeping off sugar and fats are basically the core of keeping pain off the bones too so just by cuttiong out known bone pain triggers weight then becomes a non issue.Also, if the spasm is the cause, then maybe a sitz bath with epsom salts would help too.So I guess me and Mr. Kamie just need to do each others feet more often while we are watching television.Because really, the feet will be the easiest place to work and you don't need to know a whole lot about movement and proper pressure with the feet like you might with the other parts of the body.With a body that's too physically compromised massages are great but one really should follow up with a professional who is centered on a sports type of modality.But feet....well they were built to take abuse and there's not too much harm to be done with a little massage and foot reflexology.If anything it will help the leg relax and when the leg relaxes the hip relaxes and before you know it you may have even temporary relief and temporary relief eventually means longer relief and pretty soon the body gets into the habit of more mobility and more mobility just might mean more motility and,well, I'm going to start looking at the pain in my butt with some new insight.Kamie
