Who can evaluate my running form and help me with my knee pain? Also, if I am wearing the correct running shoes. I have tried the running specialty stores and it worked out well, still having knee pain, would like a doctor to have a look. thanks
I would suggest a doctor specializing in sport medicine. If there is not one in your area, then try an orthopedist.

In the DVD volume 5 Boris provides a detailed verbal explanation followed by on screen caption commentaries at the time of hands-on performance. He teaches how to perform region specific self-massage for painful hamstring, quadriceps and knee injuries, including Jumper’s Knee and Runner’s Knee injuries. The self massage includes trigger point therapy, application of hot stones and ice, post isometric relaxation techniques, and rehabilitative exercise. This DVD is designed as a home study educational program and contains theoretical as well as practical parts. It’s easy to study and you can use offered techniques immediately.
If you sustain hamstring, quadriceps or knee injuries during sports activities, car accidents, or work either caused by a repeated motion and/or performing any work that strains hamstring, quadriceps or knee, this program could be effective in helping yourself to feel better. It could also be very beneficial in preventing possible complications like ligaments, muscles or tendons tears, acceleration of osteo-arthritis development within knee and hip joints, and more.

15/F I play tennis and it causes knee pain. What can I take to strengthen my knee joint so it won't hurt as much? Or what can I take to alleviate the pain? Thanks!
1. glucosamine chondroitin to strengthen joints
2. tylenol or ibuprofen for pain
3. leg exercises to strengthen muscles around knees so that your knees have more support and less stress and, therefore, less risk of injury and pain

I had surgery about a year ago for an ACL tear, i went to the doctor for recent pain, I was given a cortisone shot and now my knee hurts worse than before! Has anyone else had this happen?
I’ve had cortisone shots put in my knee, but it never hurt worse than before, sometimes didn’t do much good. The Doctor who gave you the shot may have injected it and not got far enough in, or missed altogether. I quit taking those shots because they linger in your body for a long time and the side effects are not worth it. Ice packs or moist heat does me more good than the shots. Even topical pain creams are better, like Aspercreme. You can try this pressure point exercise that also helps. Has anybody ever grabbed your leg and squeezed just above the knee to make you laugh? That’s a good pressure point, just above the knee cap and back a little, squeeze on both sides and hold for as long as you can, then move to below the knee cap and squeeze there also. Helps my pain. For moist heat, just take a towel and soak it with hot water, ring it out and then wrap it around your knee. Do this at least four or five times, then again once or twice more through the day. After each use, rub the entire knee with Aspercreme. You can even use temporarily, a knee support to help the pain. Wishing you the very best young lady and hope your pain leaves you soon. Good luck.

I feel acute pain when I straighten my left leg in an effort to stand, after sitting. I'm Ok in the morning, climbing stairs, walking etc. The pain is located on the inside part of the leg, at knee level. Joint pain, maybe? Nothing is swollen.
It takes maybe a minute before the pain leaves and I can stand up and walk. If I walk too much I , the condition becomes worse but not while I'm walking. It's only the next time I straighten my leg after sitting that the pain is worse than if I hadn't walked too much.
It sounds like a problem with the cartilage in your knee. You should see an orthopedic physician. They will determine the cause of your pain, and be able to treat it. Also, a supporter for the knee will help a lot. It keeps the knee in place and you can find them at Walmart or Target. They're not expensive either.
