...almost feels like it wants to give? but It is managable.
I had a series of 3 lubricating inections in my right knee over 6 months ago due to swelling and a possible slight tear in my miniscus.
The new issue that I am having is that I can not run without having a sharp pain on the outside of my right knee joint, it feels like where the femur and lower leg bone connect (inside and out toward the edge). It sometimes depends on how my feet land, but no matter what strike I try it's constant. I also have slight pain under my lower kneecap in the center when I straighten my leg all the way. There is a popping sensation on occasion also along with pain when I walk down stairs.
I do not have this pain when I use the elliptical machine.
I have been doing IT band stretches but it has not seemed to help me at all. Any suggestions?
Jake thank you, I have pretty much not done any running the last month or so, it's just been cardio on the elliptical since it does not hurt to do that. The impact I believe is what is making it painful and swell. Yesterday was the first time I tried running on it and after the 4th step it was instant pain.
