Specializes in Orthopedic Reconstructive Surgery

See an orthopedist : If you have been having recurrung symptoms for a year, you should seek an evaluation with an orthopaedic surgeon. Physical therapy will probably be your best bet. Would recommend against running track until your symptoms are under better control.
