I have a small muscle tear on the muscle that is attached to my hip bone. It causes me a large amount of pain, I've had it checked out and I've been told this will flare up and off for the rest of my life. I was wondering if anyone has knowledge or experience with something similar to this. Is there certain exercises I can do to strengthen this muscle or do I just have to deal with this pain?

To be more descriptive of the location and pain...its in my lower back and its on the left side of my body, I can feel the pain mainly when I put weight on my left leg. This happened when I was doing deadlifts in the school gym and somebody backed into me while I had just straightened my body with the barbell, then I dropped the barbell and just instinctively I tried to grab it while it fell and thats when the tear happened.

Damn, that fucking sucks man. I'd be pretty pissed at that guy.

Torn muscles are not my expertise, but you should of course rest for a while. Don't do anything that hurts. You might want to look into a good ART specialist and see if he can do anything.
