Effective way. You obviously have some kind of problem that other people don’t have that gives you discomfort without any obvious way to solve it. Seeing a doctor helps to rule out some underlying, organic problem. I don’t know about very wrong, but being able to sit only five minutes indian style seems very low.
I was going on the description of “intense pain”. I know from personal experience that you need to ease into the lotus but I never experienced anything that I would describe as “intense pain”, at most “mild to moderate discomfort” after five minutes. Anyway, gothgirl420666 was having a problem without any obvious solutions, as evidenced by his lack of proposed solutions by his peers, so I suggested to pay a visit to a professional with extensive domain knowledge.

Oh okay, for some reason when I first read your comment I got a sense of urgency from it. Thanks for clarifying.
I’ve seen yoga books which explain how to ease into sitting in full lotus.
