Suggest Remedy For Pain In My Knee And Ankle From Jogging
Hi,
I have been trying to get in shape with my husband only I have to basically jog to keep up with him walking. My legs would get real tired & I hurt my knee. There was quite a bit of pain for about 5-7 days. Now, there's no pain but it feels stiff. There's also some swelling now too where there hadn't been before. But, the swelling is now also in my ankle on that same leg. My leg has a lot tightness feeling behind the knee joint & down my calf. Any idea what this might be or what I should do? I've been trying to stay off it as much as I can & alternating ice & heat when I can too.
