Good afternoon.

How to return to training after the old Achilles tendon rapture? Four and a half months had passed 4.5 months after surgery.

Thank you.

Good afternoon.

I run a little over half-year. Taking my fitness level and frequency of trainings into consideration I can say that I'm a novice, not even amateur runner.

Unfortunately, even during this short period I had injuries. A month ago I pulled ligaments of ankle joint in the result of failed landing (my leg slipped), it hurt for a long time. Now a new misfortune: a discomfort in the area of hip joint is felt for a couple of days.

These injuries are not so serious to consult a doctor, so I use ointment and do breaks in training. Now I more or less understand something about prevention but when injuries happens...Are there any working exercises or other rehabilitation methods that should be used but not after severe injuries?

Thank you!

Tendon injury, ligaments injury or ligament tension?

I trained on a conrete (25 km twice or three times a week) and after that I felt knee pain and my legs became numb from knees to feet. I felt a dragging pain in a week. It's been three months since then but the knee pain doesn't go away provided that there were no sharp pain, tumours, bruise, X-ray was clear. I'd taken a course of anti-inflammatory pills (glucosamin, collagen and chondroitin in complex).

What can it be?

Good afternoon,

I felt hip pain (right side) after 11 km running. I found on the internet that it can be caused by leg length difference and arranged to see an orthopedist but may be you know what can cause the pain and how to solve the problem?

Demotivation after traumas - what to do? How not to stop running at all while you can't run?   

Is it possible to put a running technique by yourself? How to check it?
