I had a nasty face-plant into a wall last week, and spent much of the last 10days with a cervical collar, healing a neck sprain, and some face damage.

Thankfully I'm mostly healed, other than a sore knee that has been cutting into my afternoon-walk opportunities.

Ready for spring activities once I'm done with this.

Good reminder not to take one's #health for granted - it can change pretty suddenly.

My knee discomfort feels a lot like my on-again/off-again patellar tendinitis aka 'jumper's knee.'

I suspect I strained that tendon. I hope that getting a patellar strap tomorrow might at least get me out walking again while I heal and do my usual exercises for that issue.

Fingers crossed. The sunny day has really made me want to be outside.

Yay - a $17 patellar strap is giving me some relief while that banged-up knee heals.

Glad it's working and making me a bit more mobile. Hope wearing it for a few days will be enough.

@ottaross tendinitis is AWFUL! Just when you think it’s on the mend, it starts screaming again. Eccentric exercises have been the only thing that’s ever helped me.
@monstreline if the weather stays dry I want to try my bike and see if that feels okay. Would be nice to wander around a bit without the car.
