Is it bad to keep running with a knee injury?I fell really hard on my knee while I was running about 3 weeks ago. There's no bruising, but for some reason my knee still really hurts, especially when I'm going up stairs. I've been taking it easy with running, and taking a few days off here and there, and icing my knee every day, but it hasn't seemed to help, and I'm just wondering if something like this is something really serious? Has this ever happened to anyone else?

See a doctor. If it still hurts 3 weeks later, you need to go to a doctor and find out what's wrong.

It's never happend to me but if it's still causing you pain I'd see a doctor and lay off the running for a while longer

I promise you that nothing will happen if you run with a knee injury. I do it all the time. Just suck it up and keep running or you'll never get better.

Hi. I had the same issue as you had.My knee hurt when I went up a flight of stairs and when I hoped on it. You know you hop up and down with just that knee.Do keep icing your knee yes. Also you should do an exercise to strength your knee. Sit in a chair not slouched over, sit straight up. Bring your leg up in a straight line and back down. Keep the knee straight and bring it down slightly then back up. Repeat up and down. You should do about 100 of those a day. Otherwise seek a doctor. Don't run on it until you can climb stairs without it hurting.
