Hi

I had a problem with my right knee last year, it was swollen due to some fluid that had collected there.
What had happened was id torn some cartiledge on the inside of my leg (cant remember the proper name for the bit it was)
The Doctor and myself came to the conclusion that it was down to a poor set of squats! :( Id actually had the problem for about 8 months before I got it looked at! He gave me some anti inflamitories for the swelling and some glucosamine/chondroitin to help repair the cartiledge, after about 6 weeks it was pretty much healed, but I took it easy on the squats for a while!

Try some glucosamine/chondroitin (sp) it really did help me
