Lateral knee "clicking" not affected by rolling IT band
ssr7:
Hey guys,
I've been experiencing some right lateral knee clicking since last night. I rolled the heck out of my IT band, stretched my piriformis (dunno if that's relevant to the problem at hand) and iced my right lateral knee and the discomfort isn't really subsiding. I had a lateral meniscus tear diagnosed via an MRI in 2007 (not sure if I tore it then or earlier) and had a PLC reconstruction operation following the diagnosis and have linering scar tissue, which may be causing or aggravating the "problem." Any suggestions?

This is going to sound glib, but given your history, my suggestion would be to find a good PT, call him or her, and set up an appointment.

i'd give it a few days before getting it checked out.. ice/roll ITB is my general advice, but if it's still bugging at nearly the same intensity by thursday i'd think about getting it checked.. if you are 'adarqui' with no insurance though, you workout :< (edit: knock on wood)
peace

^^^ Probably true, give it a couple of days of RICE and see where you're at. But the fact that you had surgery makes me think that, unlike Lord Darqman there, thou hast insurance. In which case, get thee to a licensed physical therapist.
Why is it suddenly 1647? I don't know.

Thanks for suggestions guys. Which would be preferable between a PT evaluation and a chiro evaluation? Also, LBSS have you worked with Steve Horwitz in Silver Spring? I'd gone to get graston/ART from him for a while, but it got too expensive and eventually I reached the point of diminishing returns...LBSS, do you have any PT recommendations in DC/Moco?
