About 3 years ago i went on this rollar coaster at canada's wonderland called 'top-gun' right after the ride stopped to let us off, my pelvis started to hurt a LOT! like near my thighs and everytime i go to stretch my legs or do anything of much with them, they start to hurt and i'll cringe and have to stop what i'm doing! Sometimes i'll just be walking and i'll feel pain again in the same area! I DID go to the doctor and also got an x-ray and examination but nothing came up!! They didn't even really diagnose anything but i'm sure if it's been hurting for 3 (going on 4) years, it isn't too good.. I don't know what the hell is wrong with them but its preventing me from doing everything activites, even if i sit in a way it'll start hurting and i'll cripple over in pain.. Someone said that it might be a torn ligament or muscle or something >< please help!!

Since you've tried a medical doctor I recommend you see either a chiropractor or acupuncturist. I would recommend a chiropractor first to get a complete survey of your spinal column. I believe you will get helped by these different doctors.

I agree with Billie 77, since you went to traditional medicine to start with, got x-rays, etc., you need to try alternative medicines to help you. I know that my neck always goes out when I'm on those rollar coasters. I see the chiropractor the next day if at all possible. (I live in the community that has Six Flags Magic Mountain Valencia California, so I know fast rollar coasters!) My Chiropractor says that the G-forces (gravity forces) of these rollar coasters are absolutely horrendous on our bodies and can do major damage to our necks and spines. You found that out with the pain you are suffering now. I'd also see an acupuncturist. They can help you to get some pain relief, albeit in a temporary way, until the chiropractor can do their magic on your spine/hips/pelvis. Both work hand-in-hand for whole body wellness. I hope you find relief soon! Good luck!
