I was fine until I visited Simla this year. I ran down some steep mountainous roads and after returning i started feeling pain in my left knee. Now I can not climb stairs fast i sense a cracking sound and mild pain when I climb stairs. What may be the problem.

⢠Quadriceps Exercises- Lie straight, make a towel role and put it under the knee, press the keen against the role, hold it for 20 secs. Repeat 20 times twice a day. This will help relieve some pain.

Dear Respected
I have gone through your problems.
For more clear advice I need to examine you in details along with some investigation like x ray and blood test.
Revert back with all these.
