@muddwell no problem

[muddwell]

@mrmrgino1983 cheers for the reply and the advice. it ended up being a ligament sprain (kind of). took about 6-8 weeks, but was good in the fact I learnt a lot more about proper riding position, technique etc. thanks again.

@muddwell it depends where your knee is hurting mate, when cycling you should have a cadence of 80 rpm.. your seat should also be in the correct position when seated your heel should just touch the pedal when the pedal is as far down as possible. lighter gear more rotations is key to overcomin cycling injuries. where does your knee hurt and when?

@Neithie no but the it band (ibial tibbial band) if tight can cause hip pain foam roller excersises are great for this

[tmroyer]

@frizzysa my first thought as well lol

[Neithie]

Does this sometimes create pain in the hip it's connected to?

[muddwell]

Dunno if you answers questions? Im 29 and I pretty much only ride my bike these days, dont run anymore. After a very vigorous ride the other other day, I noticed some discomfort in my left knee in the evening. Its been a couple of days and hasnt really improved. Sitting down with knees bent seems to aggravate it, but even still its not pain, just discomfort. Didnt notice anything while riding. Anyone got any ideas? am gonna see a doc in a bit over a week, but thought id ask anyways. cheers.
