Thanks for reading my thread, hopefully you can help this poor Irish man with his knee problem!!
After putting in a good November and December on the bike in preparation for 2013 racing season a week before Christmas my right knee seized up after a 4 hour spin. In the last 4 weeks I've been doing an hour here and there on the turbo trainer in the hope of "resting" my knee.
Last Saturday I did 2 hours and the pain came back after 75mins.
The pain is (at its worst) very intense and sharp on every pedal stroke just above my right knee cap.
It takes approx. 45-60 mins to bring on the pain.
I am due my third visit to physio this week but I am looking for anyone who may have experienced similar issues who could help.
Being 35 years of age time is not on my side!!... So I would be grateful for any advice that you my fellow cyclists can offer me so I can resume training... for the sake of my sanity... and that of my missus!!
