Dammit, some 4 weeks ago I had to stop training for a Half Mary because I got Runner's Knee. I've rested it, went to my ortho's PA, and last week saw my orthopedist. As of last week, I can run about 1 1/2 miles before I start to feel twinges. I immediately stop running and walk back to my car or house at that point, so I never get to the actual pain point.
My ortho suggested I try P.T., but I told him I was skeptical that could help. I'm doing various exercises at home - I have a home gym for some of the resistance exercises. I visited 2 nearby P.T. places and point-blank asked them what they feel they could do to help my runner's knee. I wasn't happy with either response so definitely won't go to either of them.
Whaddya think? Have you ever gone for PT for runner's knee and did it help? Or do I just have to be patient a little longer. fyi I plan to try running a short distance, again, in another day or 2 to gauge my progress or lack thereof .
