The running journey has come to a grinding stop, no running this week , Right Knee pain under load and discomfort when walking, not good no real improvement so far this week, docs on Monday, done the RICE thing and voltarol to no avail. .. make room on that Injury couch could be there for a while ,
bugger or what eh ... still optimistic it will improve
Oh dear!!Trying to be polite lol!!Sory to hear S-R but as Jj says you are doing the right things...just have to be patient!I will move over a bit and make room....
it does feel somewhat better today poppy but I have avoided using the stairs to many times as it seemed to aggravate it more. Will see how it is in the morning again ,thanks for asking poppy xxxx
Noooooooo..... Rob, what have you been up to?? Soooo sorry to hear that you are on the IC. Get all the help and advice you can and get back out there as soon as you can.
Thanks Andy. no idea what or when it happened , it started to play up a week ago last Friday, It didn't stop me running at parkrun last sat, which in hindsight maybe shouldn't have. Decided not to run and rest it etc this week and make doc apmt , will see how it feels on Monday , although no real improvement so far .
This is probably the first time that you have been on the IC since you started... so must be a bit of a shocker to your new lifestyle... think I would get a bit stressed about it!! My running is fine... taking my new shoes out for another spin later on a long-ish run.
I'm still on ic as well. Right knee improving steadily but now my left outer thigh muscle is screaming where it's been compensating for the initial injury. So I think I will be here for a while. Everything throbbing at the mo so it's painkillers and patience, I therefore empathise and sympathise with you. So which of us is bringing the popcorn it could be a while.
Didn't know you were on the IC - what a blow - glad you're making progress now and feel a bit more optimistic. I haven't run for 2 weeks (sloth) and then went out this week and got a PB, so there's hope for you yet - I'm sure that couch won't win you back.
Thanks Buffy it is has been really frustrating but yup now hopefully we know what the problem is , Houston we can fix it we are slowly on the way back ..
