Hi everyone,
Getting out of bed on Saturday morning, I felt my left knee cap "pop out" then "pop back in" again. (I don't know the technical terms yet, but it hurt quite a lot). I then went out for my weekend ride.
Later back at home, it happened again 3 more times, until I went out to buy a support bandage for my knee. (it's been OK since putting on the elasticated bandage)
I'm 39 now, but have never had any problems with my knees before, and wonder where this problem came from. I plan to see a physio soon, but I would be really pleased to hear from anyone who has had similar problems, or advice...
In particular if anyone has any comments on the following, that would be great...
- presumably cycling is OK, what about running?
- will my knee fix itself or do I need to do something more?
Thanks for anyone with information
(maybe I'm just getting old!)
