Hello

I  tweaked-pulled-hurt my right knee training in September.  My knee issue flaired up during a training run.  Dr. & Therapy seem think it may be a hamstring pull.

Well I finished my last race for the season Sunday a week ago (walked the 5K).  I then took 5 days off with no training of any kind except for a knee Therapy session on Tuesday. Knee & leg feeling good.   So Saturday I went out for my normal weekend ride (21 miles) and was not pushing it.

Right knee right back to hurting and weak going up and down stairs.  Today  hamstring throbbing a little.

I think  I have something more serious wrong with my knee that a hamstring pull.  Any exercise the pain is back


Any thoughts? or Past experience?

Kevin

if you have a partial tear of a muscle or ligament, it can take months to heal.

I've had issues with my knees that took a long time to get back to "normal".

5 days off the bike isn't enough unfortunately...we all want to train train train, but if you get injured, you have to take the time off to heal.

Hello

Yes I would like to swim with you but I would be in the slow lane.

Good thing about my last race was that I spanked the swim.  Well for me I did so I feel good about swimming.

I have been watching your knee thread.

Hello

2 Nov   appointment with Ortho knee doctor.  The same doctor who scoped my left knee and did ACL repair on my daughter & son.

Now I can get to the botom of the knee/hamstring problem
