Re: Someone walk me off the ledge please
Wow, it could be a lot of things.
How long have you been belly dancing? It could be referred pain. Are you doing lots of hip hikes? Quadratus Lumborum trigger points refer pain to the hip area around the Greater Trochanter, so that makes sense.
I looked at the mid abdominal trigger point pattern and it matches the description of your pain.
You could try a massage therapist that specializes in Neuromuscular Therapy (find an experienced one) or try acupuncture to gain some relief.
I suspect that the belly dancing is contributing to the trigger points, you are working those poor sarcomeres overtime in the abdominal muscle fibers.
Belly dancing is tough. I have a friend who used to compete.
