I searched the net for some stretches or exercises for this strained muscle thing I've got going on. I found a sports medicine site that described it as a strained adductor muscle. It's a muscle that attaches below the knee,goes up and over between the legs and back down to attach below the other knee. They warned not to try any of the stretches for the first 72 hours after the injury.
The wife went to town shortly after we read that site and ran in to the next door neighbor. She's a nurse too. The wife was telling her what was going on with me and the neighbor started to describe the symptoms before the wife could say anything. Their youngest son had the same thing happen to him while he was playing high school football. She said he couldn't walk either,they had to carry him around. She said they took him to a chiropractor. She said he got right down between his legs and ground his fist right in to the muscle and worked him so hard they could hear him yelling out in the waiting room. She said that after being carried in to the office,he was able to walk out on his own.
My wife did her continuing education one time on massage therapy and knows all about pressure points and all that. She ground in to me after supper and did it again when I went to bed last night. I didn't have any problems moving around in bed all night or rolling over. I was able to sit on the edge of the bed and lift my feet to get my socks on this morning. The left side kind of tightened up on me after I got up and got moving. I'm still using the walker,but I'm coming around alright. I'm just glad to know that it's not something that's unheard of anyway and that I was right about it taking time to get over it.
This sure wouldn't be a good time to be single or milking cows. Or worse,both.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
