Knee Pain

took a week off the bike and knee was loads better, cycled 15 miles or so over a couple of days and can start to feel pain again.

Whats odd is that I can feel the pain start even though I am on my fixed gear with straps and not limited in position so much as my road bike with cleats.

Basically if I sit on a chair and then twist my right leg down towards the floor I get a fairly sharp pain on the inside of my knee, quite hard to locate.

Like I said - its not a sharp pain all the time or even terribly bad but the more I cycle the more it seems to aggravate it

Please have a read of my post on previous page and any ideas??>

csb/update

been to the physio twice, have discovered that my right leg with the bad knee constantly wants to twist outwards.

If i sit and dangle my legs off the edge of something my right foot naturally twists outwards.

Anyway, it would appear that the primary cause is my hip rotator but it is also affecting my ankle and thus I also have poor stability on the right side when trying to do a single legged squat.

its taken 2 hours to get to this conclusion, but i am happy thus far. It was especially impressive due to the fact that no matter how she twisted and contorted me we were unable to replicate the same pain, other than when I sat down and twisted knee outwards. Bizzare.

Anyway its certainly not fixed but I hope that it is something I can now work on. Im glad there is now something i can visibly see (foot twisting outwards).

Going to go for a cycle tomorrow and make a conscious effort to keep my foot in a straight line and see how my knee feels after that.

tldr - its most certainly not always JUST your knee.
