Finally a name for it!

We had a wonderful Christmas full of family, laughs and food! I Loved every moment! I found out what I have finally my daughter in law was reading in a magazine and said mom this has help for knee pain I read it and it was me totally! It's  Illotibial band syndrome! It's the tendon that goes from your hip to your shin, when it's inflamed your hips can be out and causes pain on the side of the knee! So I need to do stretches to loosen it take continue to take ibuprofen and rest and ice.
It's nice to know what it is that hopefully that will help to do the right things. The side of my knee has been killing me again this weekend going up and down the stairs and running around shopping. I'm going to talk to the chiropractor to see about ultrasound they say that helps. Here's hoping for relief soon!
