These things can take forever it seems, and sometimes the more we try to fix them the more we end up just irritating them!
One thing to be aware of when dancing or doing re-hab on it is the position of your pelvis, this can dramatically affect the stability and mobility of the hip and flexors and extensors of the hip. This video which is also found in the Veena’s Tips section of the lessons might be helpful for you! https://www.studioveena.com/videos/view/535743ed-9b88-4d0d-a481-534e0a9aa0eb
The lower body routine is great as well! https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/52e9d171-5724-43b2-8784-47960a9aa0eb

(Possible injury)From my understanding, massage and rolling an injury is good even early on because it will help prevent the scar tissue from forming back in a odd way making things tight for the muscle. However, I know recommendations are always changing and there are many theories out there as far as muscle injury go. I find heat helpful too, as long as I don’t have swelling.
I had similar pain when trying to focus on lengthening my hamstrings, they are my stubborn area, so I found using a tennis ball so helpful. After that, I made sure to be less aggressive with my hamstrings, now after doing tons of downward dogs within a reasonable ROM my hams are finally finding more length, but it’s been a sloooow process.
To use the ball, just sit down on the floor and place it under the bum, rolling around until you find the sore spot, then stay with that spot for a bit. Don’t sit on it for too long, like hours, just see if you can find the spot and sit with the tension until it starts to feel lessened. You can use the tennis ball before you workout or stretch and after or anytime of day!

I don’t know if the pole would leave a mark, I would think if it did it might pop back up after you take it down??

YEs, they can scratch the pole. I you have a pole that you don’t want scratched I wouldn’t use them to dance in. If the pole is Stainless steel scratches are ok, if the studio doesn’t mind, and often help with grip.

The 30 day take off program is a great way to get back into pole, it takes you step by step and day by day telling you what to work on for 30 days. 🙂
