One thing I struggle with during exercise is knee and joint pain. I have been told that there is no real reason for the pain, could be onset early arthritis or it could be down to the fact I am classed as clinically obese. I do know that loosing weight would help but I also think there are underlying issues.
This has made me look into getting help, alongside healthy eating and gentle exercise. I would love to be able to run again and as much as I love swimming the pain makes me stop after a little while. Finding someone who will go through and identify the source of the problem with me and explain it in an easy to understand way.
