pain near the knee

I've recently developed a pain near my knee

it feels like a tendon and mostly hurts when i do a leggy mirage, clipper, and especially when i follow all the way through with an osis. Anyone else ever have this problem, and how did you solve it? I'm taking a bike ride tomorrow, hopefully that helps.

One amazing way to make pain go away is not doing anything that might cause the pain.

This is a good idea because most things that cause pain are bad for you. Like sticking your hand in the fire.

yeah I would imagine that hurts. do you have some experience in that?

trying taking a hot bath and just taking it easy for a day or two and see if it gets any better.

i had the same pain , its just a tendonitis of the knee from overuse of that tendon , i took a month off and it has been fine ever since, change your form on whirls or whatever thats usually th ekiller and superflys

I guess i just won't go fearless for a while, that's MY excuse now

I thought it might be tendonitis... thanks Joe

I haven't really taken more than a couple of 2 day breaks since i started playing, which has probably been stupid of me. How long did it take for ur leg to repair itself Zach?

it took me about a week, but right now i have just cut back on playing a little. i play like maybe an hour a day now instead of 3 or 4, it doesnt hurt as much.
