How can i treat knee pain that only occurs while jogging?

Ortho consult: First, i think it would be imperative that you find out what is wrong. Particularly, since you like to be active, don;t wait until your problem worsens. Maybe a brace will suffice, maybe you need to have a surgical procedure to fix the problem. Sometimes an orthotic can help reduce the strain on the knee particularly if the pain is on the medial aspect or inner side of the knee.

Exercises: Exercise therapy can be very helpful for knee pain, particularly runners knee. However, they must be performed in certain ways. Rest from strenuous activities and targeted therapy are key. Online resources are available on sites such as simpletherapy.Com.

Leg lifts: If you are a serious runner and have not strengthened your quadriceps muscle(the one above your knee) then the pain you are describing could be from your knee cap not staying in propper alignment.
