I'm a runner and I've been experiencing pain on the inside of both knees and some tightness or ache in the arch of one foot. I found some rather sore trigger points in the calves as well as the same thing directly above both knees on the inside. I have been treating these with a lacrosse ball which really is aggressive when compared to using a tennis ball. I feel improvement in the tissue but I would like to know if anyone thinks that i have assessed the cause of the injuries correctly as being tight muscles in the quads and calves.
Well, I think there are several massages that will worth to get rid of all sort of pain in joints and happens due to sports injury as there are some sport massages that are very good for runners and they get better prevention.
I have never heard someone getting cured with a "lacrosse ball" moreover, i would prefer consulting a doctor or might take some pain killers if the pain can't be resisted
