Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

This is what I'm guessing I have. Seeing an actual fizz on Friday.

Can this type of injury be caused by wearing insoles or having a bike seat too low?

Boing for CT

I think Lateral Collateral injuries come from a loaded twist or a dynamic hit on the inside of the knee. But CT is your man for mode of injury, and you can back track from there.

Low bike seat sounds very unlikely to me - more likely to have issues with your Patellar tendon

Yeah. I'm thinking now I can do a bit more research at home.

At the same time tho, the pain starts at the top of the patella, tracking down the lateral aspect rather than straight down the middle.

Do you get it when cycling or running.
And do you have cleats?

Yes I have cleats. Don't get it at all when cycling, just running. Started off only on descending and now it's constant including today when I've done nothing.

Hmmm - I suspect a dynamic twist - but CT will have a better idea!

Got something to say?
