What to do during knee injury

Road biking? Not sure if you're there yet in your rehab, but it's a somewhat fun productive outlet. Rock climbing could be another good outlet, or at the very least chin-ups, and generally working out.

Tell me in the last year you went to a doctor

Read some books. It’s the healthiest escape you have and one of the few things you can do to feel accomplished when laid up.

I just went through 7 months of this, I know how you feel. I never read a book in my life but my first time picking up Harry Potter I read it in a day.

Yes, I've been in a sports clinic since march.

Tanks for your tips.
Since i got my injury I'm in the physio and also work out in the gym (with my physiotherapist).
But right now I can only ride a spinning bike (with low intensity) becaus the stop and go on a road bike would be to stressful for my knees.
Otherwise I'm unfortunately not allowed to do any sports except form physio.
So I was more thinking about things I can do without using my body to much. But tanks anyway for your help.

Thanks for your advice! I also never read a book in my life :-) but I will definitely try that.

ok so what exactly happened with your knee? 'I had a knee injury and it still hurts' is vague

Have you talked to a physical therapist about it? I’m sure you have during early recovery but I would check in again if you haven’t.

Oh I was hooked, read 3 in a week. Then spaced the remaining 4 out over the following months so I could enjoy them. They’re the greatest.

Now starting The Hobbit .

Because before working a 9-5 I was a college party animal when I wasn’t studying. Before that I was a teenager and I definitely wasn’t reading for leisure during those days either.

u never had to read a book in school

grantlewis_dntmu never had to read a book in school

Sparknotes is why I am the way I am and there's no undoing it tbh

Probably read Dracula all the way through (that was a good one) but no, I never read the assigned literature. I couldn’t.

4 years of sparknotes and bullshit got me where I needed to be.

Biffbarfok so what exactly happened with your knee? 'I had a knee injury and it still hurts' is vague

So basically I just have a chronic inflammation in the patellar tendon (Jumpers knee). But it's a bit more complicated than that.
At the very beginning of February a catched an edge on a dfd and got a little bit unlucky and tore a muscle fiber. Nothing bad but I wasn't able to ski for a few weeks/months. In this time I wasn't able to put pressure on the injured leg and did everything with my other one. This one-sided pressure affected my knee. And when I was able to ski and do sports again, I didn't start slowly. Because my friends learned a bunch of new tricks and I wanted to learn these too.
The consequence was pain in the knee that increased every time I went skiing. However, I didn't want to stop skiing again because I already had not been able to ride for the last few weeks. And I just ignored the pain until it was so bad that i couldn't really ski anymore (probably the most stupid thing I have done in my life).
In most cases you can clean out a jumpers knee by only going to the physio and doing exercises. But in my case my patella tendon was already so hard injured that it was not possible to clean it out by only doing physio. And we had do adjust the treatment. Therefore I have started with focused shock-wave therapy (not quit sure if that's the correct name in English). I have already completed the first session and recently started with the second one.
So technically my injury is not even a hard one (I didn't broke or tore anything) It's just annoying because it can take quiet a long time to clean it out.

i would say steep of shred sauce or even finger boarding would be fun
