Question
Hello Adam

I suffered torn tendon on my right knee. I am not overweight(I just weigh 65 kg) but still i got injured. I wasn't involved in any accident or anything like that. I first suffered acute pain piercing pain on my right knee while my regular morning jog. It subsided after a week rest only to resurface again. Now i have stopped jogging for almost 2years. Do you think I can restart jogging now that I don't feel pain near the knee cap.

Regards,

Chandan

Answer
Chandan,

I really can not answer this question for you. Without examining you and not knowing your history I can not be sure that I am giving you sound advice. You should talk with the medical provider who treated you for this injury originally or talk with you family physician.  Good luck!
