Not daily, but they do make a lovely grinding noise when I walk up stairs, pedal my bike, stand up and so on and sor forth. Ice and anti-inflamatories are your friends. <br /><br />And I have to agree, the shoulder and the chin were kinda attractive.FoggyDewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07934197854661226301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13000256.post-17952344808996500992009-07-08T08:54:59.309-04:002009-07-08T08:54:59.309-04:00I get somewhat guilty when I look at cheese and th...I get somewhat guilty when I look at cheese and think of you, because instead of like looking at some imported cheese from some exotic European country that has been aged since the dawn of time, I'm looking at processed American cheese for grilled sandwiches, or shredded cheddar for chili, or ... mmm ...

Maybe not the same as a mountain biker, but still. . . don't knock your athletic pursuits! (Don't knock my smock?. . . ) Parkour trainers (the one or two that exist) highly recommend systemic anti-inflammatories, like fish-oil, and massage for any injury involving ligaments and tendons. You can get a foam roller at a sports store and roll your quad - it'll help reduce stress on that ligament by loosening the muscle and will increase blood flow to the area, promoting healing. I just got one to help with my jumper's knee.
