Well I went today and saw a lovely lady called Yvonne about my knee problem. She spent around twenty minutes performing tests and assessing the issue and allayed some of my fears that I had done damage to my cartiledge or meniscus.

I have apparently done some damage to my medial ligament and caused the surrounding muscles to go into spasm which is why I'm still getting pain after 9 weeks!!! The rest of my time with her was spent with her trying to release these muscles from their spasm, this was the bit that I knew would be painful and I was definately not dissappointed!!! But at least the pain seems to have been worth it so far, its is definately more comfortable this evening, if a little tender!!! I'll be going for a repeat performance in 10 days.

I would definately recommend the clinic to anyone, very professional including not being afraid of causing a little short term pain to releive long term problems (a lot of physios are a bit soft when it comes to this!!!). Hopefully I will be injury free for a while after this but if not I will definately be going back. Thanks all for the recommendations.
