Pain Outside of Knees due to Running
I am a serious runner averaging 60-80 kms/week during peak season and 30-40kms/week otherwise for the past 6-7 years. Lately to make up for lost running workout I ran too many kms too soon in the past month for a number of weeks. Now I have a recurring pain outside of my knee joints every time I resume running after days of rest and rehab exercise for ITB also doing leg and glute strengthening. During running the pain is very mild it's only after a few hrs that the pain starts and then after days of rest and stretching the pain subsides. What is the long term solution for the this issue?

Poor mechanics can be the problem. Proper assessment and treatment is needed. Consult physiotherapist having good biomechanical knowledge.
