Hi, I was doing squats two 35 lb dumb bells. I don't exorsize. This was the first day of trying. I didn't fell anything. The next morning it was very painful to walk. I tried to take it easy. I felt the need to pop the joint as if it were one of the knuckles on my hand. I proceeded to do so by tying a rope to my leg and the two 35 lb weights I had used and then pushed away from the weights while slowly relaxing my hip muscles. I didn't stretch the joint much but it did seperate. I did this twice. One on the first day and one time the next day. Then I did nothing for the joint for the next three weeks. I did however do my normal daily tasks and routines. No improvement from day one. I then started massaging the muscles and tendons of the joint and I was seeing some improvement. There were a couple of days where I did no activities and there seem to be more improvement.
Can you tell me what my problem might be and what a doctor might advise me to do or not do and for how long?
