Kinda funny - at the start of this thread I had no knee trouble.

I've recently switched positions and done a lot of hitting (and a lot of indoor play since all summer was outdoors) - my knee had been bothering me more than normal. I figured it was just jumpers knee and got a McDavid knee strap for compression. It feels a lot better but wasn't going away.

I went to a cyropractor for and alignment - and mentioned it to him. He noticed I had scared tissue in my ankle from last april that never fully healed. This lead to me compensating w/ my leg (mostly knee) when jumping. Going from grass and sand didn't make it notice as much until I went indoors.

Basicly physical therapy is what I'm doing now to try to break up some scared tissue....

That along w/ ibuprofen, biofreeze and lots of ice is my new regiment.

So if it keeps hurting, see a doc!
