Brenley, you mention when you wake up in the morning it is back to being tight.

I wonder if the way you sleep leads to the tightness? Do you sleep on your side? I noticed after an injury on my left arm/shoulder area I started sleeping on my right side. After some time I seemed to have left SI pain. By putting a pillow in between my legs it helped ease the hip issues and left SI area. Recently I got a memory foam mattress and that helps now too.
