| Hey DM.. can you help me? I've been going for brisk | | | | Dear Kneed-to-walk, |
| walks for about 6 months now. 2 weeks ago, I tried | | | | The best exercise you can do right now is to WALK |
| running instead, and I didnt warm up, but just started | | | | INTO A PHYSICIAN'S CLINIC! What's wrong with |
| running. Felt pain in my knee but I thought it would | | | | you? Unless you have been previously diagnosed with |
| go away once I stopped.. the next morning I could | | | | a knee problem, you really don't know what you're |
| hardly walk. After a few hours, I could then walk | | | | up against. This is especially the case since you need |
| again. Resting my leg is difficult because my job | | | | to walk alot for your job. If your career was more |
| involves me to walk alot, so I can only do that on | | | | of a sit-down desk job, then maybe it wouldn't be as |
| my off days from work. Its been a week since I've | | | | critical, but you still need to go see a physician |
| stopped my evening walks and tried to get as much | | | | though. The sooner the better! I've dislocated my |
| rest as possible. I've still got slight pain on the side of | | | | left knee twice before, and that's only made me |
| my knee.. and I feel like I have to protect it and it | | | | more prone to further knee injuries. Your knee is |
| feels unstable, expecially if i am making a sharp turn. | | | | something NOT to be taken lightly. Ask any footballer |
| Its kinda hard to describe, and feels real 'tight'. I'm | | | | if you're not convinced or those who have had to |
| wondering if there's any special exercise or stretches | | | | undergo open-knee surgeries all simply because they |
| you could point out? | | | | neglected it and failed to pay attention to the signs |
| Yours sincerely, | | | | their body was giving from the very beginning. |
