2nd run of wk 2 and I'm getting paon and slight swelling behind my knee which I previously had a knee reconstruction due to a ACL tear a few years ago any advice welcome on how to help me through this.....TIA

You could ice it and rest and see how it goes. If you're worried see your gp

Sorry to hear you're in pain so early on. Have you been running very slowly as per advice here?

Follow the advice of MissW.

Yes rest and ice with gentle movements but the swelling behind your knee combined with a history of ACL tear worries me that it could be more than joggers knee. If the swelling goes with the ice, take the next run gently. If it recurs (or doesn't settle) I would get it seen to sooner rather than later in your case.

Been using a knee support 4 last 3 runs and swelling has not reoccurred so think this is helping I'm now beginning to think it's been due to not being use to exercise.... thanx for all ur advice 😉
