To make a long story short, I hurt my hip flexor muscle over 2 months ago playing soccer. I made it worse by playing soccer twice more after that. But, since then, I haven't done anything physical. I finally got a recommendation from a Doctor to see a PT.
I have now been to the PT three times (starting 3 weeks ago) and have had acupuncture treatment, ultrasound treatment, heat/ice treatment, some extreme pain/pressure treatment, and a multitude of exercises. Nothing has seemed to make a difference.

and wished I had an Airrosti clinic nearby but I do not. I have never had this issue in my life and had played soccer most of my life and had run a few marathons.
What else can I do? Wait it out for who-knows-how-long and keep these exercises going to hopefully make it better? I don't want to wait that much longer since I physically cannot run. Are there other things that can be done? Like a steroid-type injection perhaps? Or any other magic drug to make it at least somewhat better?
