my first knee pain! - Page 2 - Snowboarding Forum

ok, so here's the latest...

knee hasn't gotten any better so i took myself off to the physio to get it checked out. it seems as though i have compacted the meniscus in my right knee and i have been advised to stay off the board for the next two weeks in order to let it heal properly.

not very happy with the situation but i suppose it's better than causing further damage and fucking up the rest of my season. the next fortnight is gonna draaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaag!

help it hels up.. and best to let it.

for me, i've had some knee issues and have found going sever duck has helped. but that is just the way my knees are built. i'm talking 35/-32 type thing. works well for me and only causes issues if i have recently had a knee smashing wipeout.

knees you'll be working hard your whole life, so don't chance a two week hiatus for a lifetime of discomfort.

Good job getting it checked out. Hard to know when to seek pro advice sometimes
