Posted: 08/20/09 - 19:33 Post subject: Calf and Knee issue. What is going on here?!
Hi everyone, I am experiencing a pain on the outisde of my right knee which after a while spreads down to my calf. Actually my calf doesnt really hurt that much, it just gets super super tight.
Anyways, I was at the ortho back in Jan for an ITB issue. I had a pain in my gleuts and he ran xrays and immediately said its the ITB. He recommended stretches and whatnot.
Well, now its August and the problem is gone in that area but now I have pain elsewhere.
My last two longer runs have been terrible. On the first I had to stop and walk and on the second I walked but then did some ITB stretches and could run a bit more. Anyways, I have no pain while walking only when running. Also, If I cross my legs under my desk for a long period it hurts. Is this still ITB related? The xrays showed nothing else going on with my knee. I have a bunch of runs coming up and I am losing speed at a rapid pace and not gaining much distance!!! Thanks for the help.
