I have a little pain in the inside of my leg near my knee seems painful and stiff when I bend it ? I haven’t done anything different just the usual warm up and a steady run ! Had it 2 weeks now

Hi De48 , I have absolutely no medical qualifications, so all I can advise is that if you're in pain, don't run. It's probably a good idea to see a physio or other health professional too, because if your symptoms have been there a while and aren't improving the problem is unlikely to go away by itself.

I faceplanted at the end of June, and at A&E I was told I'd probably sprained my knee. My symptoms were not dissimilar to yours, but severe enough that I moved like a limping crab for a week. It was a couple of weeks before I could run at all, but having built back very slowly, I'm now getting back to where I was. So don't worry too much, but do get yourself checked out.

If it's bothering you, get it checked out. I'd advise against consulting Doctor Google as most of us (myself included) are awful at diagnosing our own injuries.
