    weird knee pain on medial side not sure what it is

    Taping
    Hi everyone I have been getting on well with my rehabilitation from a hamstring autograft acl reconstruction with lateral collateral and posterolateral corner reconstruction, but have just been stopped in my tracks by a weird pain on the medial side of my operated right knee, I have struggled with this pain since the 1 st may 2009. Pain originally occured when I was running and I got a shooting pain up my hamstrings, after this I keep on getting pain on the medial side of my knee coupled with random pains in the upper section of the semitendinosus hamstring tendon. I have had this for 4 weeks now with no real improvement in pain and symptoms, how long do you think I should wait before I would consider it a major problem as my physio just keeps on saying to rest it and stretch it which I have done for a month but nothing is actually happening.

    Does anyone know what the problem could be and how long it will actually take to resolve.

    thanks danny

    Must have Kinesiology Taping DVD
    Hi,

    I hope you're feeling better. Was it pes anserine bursitis that you had secondary to a muscle strain to medial hamstring? It could had been possible if you had tight med hamstring, run without stretching then straining med hamstring during the run. Along the course of hamstring healing, the pes anserine bursa could have swollen because you were not suppose to stretch a strained muscle on its acute phase. Just wondering..

    please let us know how you're feeling and how you fixed the problem if you are well now...


    cheers,
    R.
