Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Hi,
Seasons greetings!

Any advice welcome!

I have runners knee and am in recovery which involves massage, stretching, ibruprofen, posture exercises and lots of other things. What I would like to know is what is the average recovery time for this type of injury as it has been six weeks and although it has improved there is soreness.

Any ideas

I can't give any advice I'm afraid. I have had a weak/sore left knee since I was about 20. No problems on a day-to-day basis, just after a long run. I wear a knee support during exercise and allow a day or so afterwards for any soreness (if any) to go.

I think I may have the same problem. RICE worked well but painful when starting to move after sitting down for a while.

I was looking at booking a sports massage in early April but I may bring this forward so my physio can have a look at my knee as well.

Got something to say?
