5. Runner’s Knee
Another common ailment affecting runners in particular is runner’s knee. This term actually describes a wide selection of different problems and these include failure of the patella to track properly over the joint.
If you suspect that you have runner’s knee, you may wish to visit a physiotherapist or a chiropractor, either of whom may be able to help.
At the same time though, it is also important that you consider the possibility that you may have caused lasting damage. In this case, you might be required to switch to a lower-impact sport such as swimming or cycling.
