bad knees

princesssadie93

Every time I run or walk it feels as if someone has taken a hot blade and stabbing me from my knee down with it. I've always had knee problems but I still went hard with my sports. But I can't do that anymore. Just stepping over a baby gate has proven to be difficult for me. Anyone have and advice?

You could try a yoga type workout.

See a doctor, find out what the problem is.

I mean, I'd wager a guess that it's runner's knee (patellofemoral syndrome) super-exacerbated by not resting it when it was hurt and not building up hip/core strength and flexibility. But if you can't walk, you need to be talking to a doctor to make sure it's not something worse.

When I was 13 I had gone to the docter about knee problems. He had said then that the tissue was growing faster than my bones so it would catch and tear in my knee caps? I wonder if its still the same problem although I'm 22 and should be done growing.
