More Right Knee Soreness

May 11th, 2009 kNuke

Every once in a while, my right knee becomes pretty sore; it’s a dull pain that persists for up to a couple days. Even when I’m sitting around watching TV, I feel pain regardless of the way my leg is positioned. I still can’t pinpoint what activities cause the pain, but I thought I’d note it for future reference.

Discomfort Behind Outside of Knee

April 27th, 2009 kNuke

I haven’t really gone full blast with my hamstring workouts since the ACL surgery, but my knee had been feeling pretty good for a while so i decided it was time to take the training wheels off. Over the course of a week I did Deadlifts and Hamstring Curls without any issues, but when I tried to do Glute-Ham Raises, I felt some discomfort.

Over the next three days I had a lingering discomfort behind the outside of surgically repaired knee. I took it easy for a of couple days, but did some wind sprints on the third day. Currently my knee feels fine. Hopefully, this was just a bump in the road. I’m a little hesitant to go full blast again, but I’m going to test it out anyway, because my knee is supposed to be 100%. I’m wondering if this discomfort was because of the knee surgery or just a freak occurrence?

Repaired ACL Massage

March 27th, 2009 kNuke

My left knee has had a few tweaks here and there, but nothing major.  It’s weird that most of my knee pain comes from my right knee.  I still can’t get into a full squat without soreness in my left knee unless I warm up really well.  I’m wondering if I should go to get massages on my knee to loosen it up for time to time?  Can I trust a regular Massage Therapist or do I need to go to a Physical Therapist?

Sore Achilles

March 26th, 2009 kNuke

About an hour before I went to bed last night my right Achilles became sore.  Today when I woke up, my right knee was sore.  This has happened a few times in the past as well.  I’m wondering if my Achilles soreness is an indicator for knee soreness?

I need to make it a point to stop compensating for my surgically repaired knee.  I’m sure that’s what’s causing the soreness.

Tweaked Knee Healed

March 7th, 2009 kNuke

After tweaking my knee, I was really worried since I was feeling some consistent sharp pains.  Luckily, after resting a few days my knee feels a lot better.  I feel pretty confident that I’ll be able to return to my workout regimine next week without any issues.
