I’m 22 years old and I’ve lost some weight by working out for 8 weeks. I usually run for 40 minutes on the treadmill.For a while, my left hip has been sore when I run and my right foot gets tingly and goes numb. Yesterday, I heard something in my hip pop and it hurt. Do you have any suggestions on what is causing the problem and how to prevent it?

possible ACL and meniscu torn??

Hi, I hurt my knee when I ski last winter (I am the beginner so that I bent my knees so my ski in a v-shape as I down hill and I maintain that position for couple hours). I feel a lot of pressure and pain after that (cannot stand up). After couple months, I found myself cannot walk up stairs (very painful but walking is fine except going upstair). Later on, I put on the tiger palm on my knees and later I feel a lot of losen up inside my knees. But that cause even more problem later that I feel no strength at all on my knees (beside walking cannot walk up and down stair). Now, I hear popping sounds when I Kneel and cannot lift up my legs straight and hear some kinds of friction sounds inside the knee caps. Please tell me what could be wrong???
