Hip Flexor Injuries for 14 yr old pitcher

[tcats123]

Hello All - I am looking for advice on a recurring injury my DD has had since September of last year. She feels a pull/strain in the top front of her plant leg - the hip flexor area. I've rested her for weeks at a time to let it heal until she feels good. She pitched for a couple weeks and same injury. This has happened twice in 6 months. My DD has grown 5-6 inches this year, so I don't know if there is a correlation, but she does use a strong, stiff front side when she pitches. Anyone else experience this? All advice is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

My dd tore her hip flexor at 11during a growth spurt the doctor prescribed physical therapy but also said her hips were tight and recommended yoga/pilates since then she has been in yoga and pilates and hasn't had any pain or reinjury
