Knee pain
Fellas, I'm getting too old for this. My left knee always feels tight day after game. No matter if I wear a brace or jump band or nothing. My chiro will adjust it but that costs a good bit of money. I use icy hot, ice it, and have a tens unit. Any tricks some of y'all use?

I jog a lot during the off-season and my knees never bother me during the season.

Purchase some White Flower from Amazon. Its cheap and amazing. Expensive product is Aroma Touch from Doterra. Buy a roller and use it on the muscles around your knee to see if you can get them to relax. YouTube Knee stretches.

What shoes are you wearing?

Nike flex run. I really really wish saucony made all black shoes. Those are my preferred running shoes. I'm not a reebok zig guy. I have a pair of those for a few years ago and the toe box is way too narrow |

I wear Zigs b/c of the cushion and bounce for my college games. I wear Nike Travas for HS games--most comfortable shoes I've ever worn and have decent cushion.

1) Lose weight 2) Ibuprofen before games: swelling is bad. Very bad. Very very very bad. Keeping it down during the game helps a bunch of different knee injuries. Not all, so as I said a specialist can help more. 3) Ice right after the game. Learn how to actually ice, I'm always amazed at what people call "icing" 4) Jump band isn't going to help you and is usually for only 1-2 specific pain problems. The right brace WILL help, but swelling is probably inevitable until you take a break and properly care for the knee. TLDR: Lose weight. Swelling is the bane of knees. Learn proper icing procedure. Figure out what "brace" best suits you |
