Have been running for 6 months and had worked up to 10k by Nov. last year. Early Dec. when out running my right knee began to be really painful. Stopped running for 3 weeks and then began gentle running again only 1mile... Over the last three weeks have been able to run every other day and have gradually upped the mileage to 3-4 miles. I have no pain when running, but usually within 24hrs my knee is very stiff and is painful
it sounds like runners knee (after reading up on knee conditions) has anyone suffered similar condition and what's the best advice for the future ??

hi bigal i had the same prob. went to doctor after 4 months of pain and was diagnosed with a meniscal tear. if your knee feels unstable or locks up or swells with nasty watery or bloody stuff you may want to see a doctor. Keep pressure off of your knee though. My doc recommended e rice bag to ease the pain until surgery. HANG IN THERE!!! :) :) :)
