Hi suzie
I had the same issue... I limped badly for 6 months!
I found the best thing to do is to really build up the muscles (glutes mainly for me). My physio told me that if some muscles are weak then others are working harder than they should so the weak ones miss out on working/rebuilding. You've got to really concentrate on the muscles that aren't strong enough yet. Once they are bigger & better then they others will release enough to let the smaller ones work properly.
My physio also massaged my scar tissue to assist pain relief/healing & did some acupuncture to stimulate blood flow and healing.
But mainly the muscle rebuilding is down to you
Also put a wheat bag on every night whilst relaxing to stimulate blood flow and scar tissue healing
As we speak I am having a coffee while clenching my glutes... what a treat for Costa!
Hope some of this helps
Good luck
Jez

I had it - build up those muscles. I also found some (quite expensive) othotic inserts in my shoes helped considerably too. I'll try to find out exactly what they were.
