It's very popular to say that running hurt the knee, but we have to deny that if we don't pay attention to some details during running, it is likely to cause our knee injury. Especially the knee is such an important part in any of our sports. Once it is damaged, it will have a great impact on our sports, and even let us say goodbye to sports forever.
In this context, more and more ways to maintain the knee appear, in fact, some methods are completely wrong. But some people believe that it will cause serious harm to those runners whose knees have been damaged, because there is the best time for knee treatment, once missed, it is difficult to completely recover the knee!
Today, I'm going to tell you what's wrong with knee maintenance? How should we properly maintain the knee!
The mistake of knee maintenance!
Knee injury at home quietly. It's also very wrong. It's true that we need to run less when the knee is injured, but it's also very wrong for us not to exercise at all, because the recovery of our knee depends on the supplement of nutrition, and there is no blood vessel in the knee. It's a kind of cartilage tissue, so we can only take suction as nutrient intake.
So even when we are recovering from injuries, we can do a very small amount of sports, such as walking, walking, cycling, which will not cause a lot of pressure on the knee, but also make the knee get enough nutrition, so that it can be repaired.
Eat more knee tonics!
Please don't believe these advertisements. They are deceiving. Indeed, to repair the knee, we need to supplement enough nutrients, such as protein, vitamin C, vitamin B and calcium. As long as we take these substances, our body will have enough nutrients to repair the knee cap. There is no so-called nutrition!
Exaggeration of the function of kneepad
I see a lot of runners who wear knee pads when they run. They believe too much in the protection of knee pads. In fact, this is also very wrong, the support provided by kneepad is also very limited, and the pressure relief for our knees is also very limited, so we should strengthen the strength of our thigh muscles, and do not rely too much on kneepad!
Kneading can restore the function of the knee
In fact, running veterans often make mistakes. Many people may think that the pain in the thigh can be alleviated obviously by massaging the thigh. Then the pain in the knee can be alleviated obviously by massaging the knee, which is very wrong.
In fact, unlike other tissues, kneading alone is not very effective, but will cause further damage to knee tissue. So we can use some mild means, the simplest way is to apply hot towel, because this heat can penetrate from the knee surface to the inside of the knee, so it can well promote the blood circulation of the knee, and speed up the repair of the knee!
