Best way to relief knee pain?I have never had any knee problems before in my life. But last week my knee was a lil sore during my run but I just shrugged it off and finished. Afterwards my knee was really stiff and sore for about a day. It only hurts when I run but I can bike just fine. I'm pretty sure its just runners knee but how can I recover from this as soon as possible. It is very important that I get over this as soon as possible.

Having had knee problems from a birth defect and am now in my late forties, I can tell you not to ingore knee pain. Especially don't do anything to strenuous with it until it stops hurting or you have seen a dr. It may not seem like much, but I was told I would not be able to do much when I was 16 and first had problems, But my dr. had me use a brace and I have had some surgeries to correct the small things, like tears and such when they happened instead of waiting and I am very active now. hope this helps.

You want to be sure that your quadriceps are properly conditioned. If they aren't strong enough, or if the strength isn't evenly distributed (sides and middle) your patella might be pulling out of alignment, causing your pain. You can do some exercises to improve the strength distribution in your quads. You also want to make sure that your hamstrings are flexible. If not, they could be putting some stress on you knee. I would just add some stretching and strengthening to your routine, if not already there. If you already do this...try ice and NSAIDS to reduce inflammation after your run. If you still have pain after a couple weeks, I would consider a trip to your doctor. It could be something more serious.
Some starter exercises to strengthen your quads:
Front (middle): Try some leg lifts while on your back. Lift the leg so that it is perpendicular to the floor. Add an ankle weight if you feel comfortable. Be careful not to grip at your hip...that'll cause other problems...
Inner Quad: Same same, just turn out your leg (toes pointing away from you) to get your inner thigh muscles.
Outer Quad: Same same again with your leg turned in (toes pointing toward you) to get at the muscles of your outer thigh.
