It is really helpful if you stick with it. PT has been a blessing for me.

How often do you buckle? Do you hear a popping sound in your knee? If you hear a popping sound, you definitely tore something. The buckling could just get weakness in your knee from the sprain. But a 'pop' definitely leads towards a bigger problem.

 

I have had acl surgery a few years ago... Fucked up my miniscis as well. sorry for the spelling....

Physical Therapy is a must.... Im not sure I would be walking right now if it wasnt for PT

 

idk, but when i ride, my nuts just feel like they turn to jello...luckily, i got a nice girlfriend who fixes that problem

 

google .... osteo bi-flex triple strength > I use it for other reasons then riding but try it out for a month and see if it helps you. read some reviews it is not gonna cure anything but I can tell when I ran out for like 2 weeks after using it for like 8 months it definetly helped.. Yes and norco or vicodin in super small amounts help a little and hopefully you wont become strung out like a crack hooker

 

i ride bmx and i have knee problems... if your kinda broke like me stretching dose wonders before and after you ride

 

there is plain and simple NO subsitute for physical therapy....however, glucosamine has helped a number of people with joint stiffness/pain....my physical therapists said they can't prove much medically with glucosamine being a magical drug, but definately urged me to try it....the way i looked at it was pretty simple....it CAN'T hurt! but yeah, physical therapy is definately not something to skip out on...i treated that **** like religion/job and i would say it worked out pretty good.

 

glucosamine........ if you're sore use them too. I dunno i don't really have knee problems..

 

couldn't agree with you more... physical therapy is the biggest help available for any type of pain!!

 

feel free to send those to me.

im right there with ya Rog and im only 24. i attribute most of the chronic knee pain i have to all the years of racing motocross.

 

Let me tell you about knee problems:


Gone thru acl surgery, twice. And both times both meniscus(dont know what it's called in english) were fucked up. Serious lifetime pain in the ***. Everytime I jump off my bike that knee is in my prayers

Sorry my bad english

 

a few years ago my bike cut off in a frogger, went straight to my knees on the fall, didnt break nothing but they hurt for a year straight. i tried glucosimine and it helped a little but i didnt stick with it long. i suffered thru a little of pain but it eventually healed and stopped hurting.

now i just need to stop hurting my ankles and feet. lol

 

i have shitty knees in general from playing ice hockey my whole life alot it of comes from lateral movements (side to side) movements your doing this alot more then you think especialy jumping all ova the bike i found these and my knees dont hurt at all anymore

and yes you still have alot of movement in them they arent like a big bulky motorcross knee brace its a knee pad/brace all in one

 

bmx and dirtbikes are definitely the reason my whole body is fucked up and always in pain. im lucky if i can get out of bed i the morning

 

your leg muscles are enormous of course you don't have knee problems guy.

 

HOLYSHIT, sorry man. what happened

 

Those are pimp...



my knees are good, i allways tend to have sore toes after riding especially my left big toe.... any one else have this problem?

 

looks like a shark bite! ouch

 

Man the **** up. I haven't gone a day in 5 years without back pain and i dislocated my left knee 3 years ago an it never healed. Pain medicine is for the weak minded. I also shattered my left wrist and now it is at 100% no meds required. Here's my way around it, imagine the pain isn't there and it won't be. Or you could drink alot. good luck with the knees

 

First time back in 06 I highsided an straightlined burnout and my knee took that blow. Surgered in jan07. This summer i mousetrapped highchair(just like guru did in ROC08, and just walked away ) and my knee was on the line again. Now it was surgered 5weeks ago and that picture is day after the surgery. Now it feels pretty good, next week i'll start physical therapy and gym This time I'll make sure it wont happen again. Next season will be with asterisks:
