I'm not sure what the problem is, but it probably doesn't help that I've done three peaks since the pain began. Uphill does not seem to be as much of a problem and sprinting on a flat surface doesn't bother me either. The pain is so bad coming down that no combination of a knee brace, aleve or my trekking poles seems to get rid of it to a point where I'm not hobbling down the mountain and wincing at every step.
Has anyone had this problem? Any advice? How long should I rest it before hiking again? The alpine summer is almost over
