I don't know if it is normal but I was diagnosed with it a couple of years ago I can tell you more if you want What cured me was 6 weeks of pt Bits is stress related and maybe fibro My fibro diagnosis came a little later I have never had them again after doing the physical therapy Yes the spasms are very painful What they do is apply pressure to the muscles which spasm and they will release

I started having really bad pain on my left side in that area. I literally couldn't lay or stand right for 11 mos. The pain wasNONSTOP. Drs kept telling me it was my back injury but I kept telling them it was my hip that hurt. Finally went to a gyn and he removed massive amounts of scar tissue the next week.besides by my hip I had a large band going to the top of my abdomen literally curling me into a ball.
It was horrible pain!!!

I had scar tissue that caused those symptoms. Very painful until they removed it.

Have you had any type of surgery in that area? could be scar tissue which can't be seen in any test.

Physical therapy worked great for the muscle spasms Did anyone try this?
