Sometimes Sharp knee pain when running
Hello,
My name's Abhishek And Im 21. I had a question. I have recently started cardio exercises like walking long distance and running in local park. Everything worked fine until recent days when it started to experience sharp pain on the side of knee joint when running. kindly please share some precautions, advices and reasons to why it is happening. (Im on a weight loss routine so it is not practical for me to stop the running exercise)
Thank you in advance

Ok looking at the symptoms, I feel you have a itb syndrome, were a thight band on outer aspect of knee rubs against the bone and cause pain.
Does tat pain start after 5 to 10 mins of running, and makes u quit activity?
Next Steps
warm up - major atheletic injuries are due to inadequate warmups - antiinflamtory - switch to cycling, swimming for few days a week.
