Not sure i can really answer you that but i was ambulanced to hospital with Sciatica (muscles totally clamped up on the sciatic nerve which is want yours sounds like) I never tried to bike, but walking was excruciating. I found sitting still very uncomfortable so was constantly moving around.
I was told to keep moving but not to push it, complete imobility, i was told, was the worst thing i could have done (since we live opposite a Tesco, i made a point of going across to buy my lunch everyday, which on the first few days had me grabbing some shelves in the middle of tescos, taking a few deep breaths and a little sob as it hurt so much before carrying on :oops: )
I'd just say you've been told to gently exercise it, and you found that to be the most comfortable0
