i am not too sure how i've becamed injured
but i work in a place which needs to stand up for a long period of time
on the weekends, and sometimes when i get home my legs are pretty tired

i only jogged a bit on the treadmill maybe 2 or 3 times in these 2
weeks
and recently i noticed that sometimes my knee joint hurts when i stand
up straight, or when i walk a muscle infront of the kneecap hurts
slightly

anyone can tell me what this injury is and anyway to cure it?

p.s. i've only ran after several times like on weds, friday, and weds

thanks

I have some knee pain from time to time. Sometimes I have to take breaks
from training.

Ice packs for 15 minutes help. Also, the rec.running faq has a nice section
on some leg lifts that I believe have helped me.

I also found last week that I got less pain running on grass and dirt rather
than the asphalt.

Maybe all these are obvious to you, but if not, I hope this helps.

ic thanks dave

VeryFastRun i rather not injure myself any further, and then later have
my some fked up legs

thanks

AC: you aren't injured. A tiny ache is not an injury, Go to a chiro and
get checked out. Barring that, you aren't running enough to consider it
a "running injury", and it is NOT an injury, just an ache. Like I said,
if you are this big a [censored] now, you may as well just quit, because all
you'll do is constantly [censored] about how much you hurt. Either STFU and
do it, or find a sport more suitable to your pain tolerance. I suggest
bowling, or badmitton.

what about cycling? when they get an owie they just put in another pad

I'll put my dollar on the table behind a tight/knotted muscle near your
knee. The quadricep, calf, or hamstring all connect at the knee, and
tension in those muscles is often first felt as a hard pinch/pain in the
tendons of the knee joint.
Because you suggest your patellar tendon is sore, start with the
quadricep. Lay on your side and use your top arm to pull your foot toward
your butt. You should feel a nice stretching in the front of your thigh,
don't overdo it. Hold for 30s, then gently roll your bent knee in a circle,
moving the stretch around the different muscles in your thigh. If you find
one position that is particularly sore, gently stretch it for 30s, and do
this a few times a day, preferably when you're most warmed up from activity.
Also do stretches for the rest of your leg and hips.
If you don't see improvment in this knee pain within 5 days, then see a
doctor/athletic trainer. I had a similar knee pain caused by a knot in my
calf muscle that wouldn't stretch out with regular stretches. The athletic
trainer used electrical stimulation to work out this knot in just a few
days. Amazingly effective stuff.

Theres several good books on knee injury.
One recommendation is muscle strengthening exercises,
either isometric (without weights) or light weights
in a gym. The books will describe these.

Judging by that first sentence, I'd say it's a brain
injury............and it's a big one.

Look stupid, what you have is not a running injury, you simply haven't
run enough to even call it that. Every ache and pain IS NOT an injury.

The injury? Or brain?

i never said it's a running injury

plus is not sore
i can feel it in between the joint
like someone is stabbing a knife in the joint
