Hi
Does anyone know how to get rid of this pain on my knee
I hit the gym twice a week as part of my training, i often do a lot of squats to mimic the breaststroke swim
My knees have been painful this past few days when i swim breaststroke so can anyone advice me of what i could do to help me get rid of this pain
Thanks
it all would depend on where in your knee the pain is.
first off i would stop doing squats that way and see if it goes away.
if it does, then you can either never do them that way again or with a lot less weight.
no matter what, the pain is telling you to stop.
there is a distinct difference between soreness and pain.
muscle soreness is good. pain is bad.
i know knee pain. i broke the inboard condial off my left femur and it doesnt align correctly with my tib/fib platue and wears a hole in the cartilage so i have bone on bone contact. i get what is called "instantious quadracep immobilization" and my entire thigh goes limp before the pain hits my brain. i have to walk with my left arm over a rail down stairs in case this happens and i fall. me and land dont get along well. this also greatly limits what weight exercises i can do.
