Have you considered that the stabbing nerve pain may be sciatica--especially if you sit a lot. When this happens to me, I do this psoas stretching version since I have standing balance issues:
To perform the table psoas stretch, follow these steps:
Positioning: Lie on your back on a stable table or bench.
Leg Placement: Allow one leg to hang over the edge of the table, letting it stretch downwards.
2
Hold the Stretch: Keep the position for 20 to 30 seconds, breathing deeply.

Repeat: Switch legs and repeat the stretch 2 to 3 times a day for best results.

This stretch helps to lengthen and relieve tightness in the psoas muscle.
