Once you have symptoms of knee pain due to running or doing other sports, you need to stop exercising immediately and stop to have a rest to prevent the knee tissue from being damaged by excessive exercise, which will lead to more serious consequences.
Second, proper ice.
When the knee hurts, you can use an ice pack or a cold towel to compress the knee, which can make the blood vessels in the knee contract and prevent the blood circulation from being too fast, thus effectively reducing the metabolic probability of the tissue, not only alleviating the discomfort of pain, but also inhibiting the occurrence of serious joints. However, it should be noted that the ice time should not be too long to prevent unnecessary harm.
Third, massage your knees properly.
When there are symptoms of knee pain due to running, patients can massage their knees and surrounding muscles appropriately. Pain should be the standard of massage, but care should be taken to keep it gentle, which will help relieve joint pain and prevent the symptoms from getting worse.
Fourth, replenish energy.
After running, we must pay attention to replenish the energy needed by the body in time, especially to strengthen joint nutrition. We can eat more foods containing amino sugar, chondroitin and other active ingredients, and eat more foods rich in high-quality protein and potassium to repair joints.
Fifth, control the amount of running
If you want to run again, you must avoid too much exercise, and it is best to do all kinds of warm-up activities in advance before running, such as stretching your muscles and adjusting your running posture appropriately to avoid the pain caused by joint injuries at your knees.
