I have a doctors appointment Monday and have to lie to him that the problem was caused by running as they have advised me not to play football.

I do not want to get to a stage where I have to stop the basics such as cycling and cross trainer because of the knee because I would definitely end up obese and die of heart disease.

I really want to play football again and have a laugh with my mates. I do not regret the football I have played loved every second of it.
Rowing is a great exercise and less stressful on the knees.

Take a rest and dont put anymore stress on your kness until a proper diagnosis is carried out.

Does your current job affect your knee?
