All stop....

So I had been going great guns. Cycling daily to work and a weekend ride here and there, but I've done something to my knee and I can barely walk properly let alone ride. Gutted.

It's my right leg, not on the actual knee, but on the knobbly bit on the outer side. Just behind that. Not sure if that makes sense! Anyway, oh my god it hurts. Had an xray, nothing broken but there's indication of damaged tissue. this has been going on since Christmas time ish. this week though the pain is radiating down my leg.

I'm in a tramadol haze, and gutted I'm not riding. And my gut is getting rounder!

Not sure what my GP is doing about it, going to see him again next week. In the meantime just hobbling around.

Sympathy.

I've just got over something similar, took about four months to shake off. An athletic knee support from Boots helped as it gave lateral support.

Are you sure your saddle position's right?

And have you been riding with what started off as a little niggle in the hope that it would go away?

What @stephec said ^^^. I pulled my knee back in the autumn which I believe was due to having the saddle set wrong. After an enforced set of short and gentle rides and a readjustment all is now much better.
