Your knees endure a lot of stress during high-impact activities like running or sprinting. Over time, this can lead to injuries such as fractures from falls or sudden impacts, and even dislocations if the kneecap or joint shifts out of place, Stony Brook Medicine notes.
If you’re a regular runner, it’s crucial to warm up properly with exercises that target the knee and surrounding muscles. Strength training, supportive braces, and avoiding overtraining can all help reduce your risk. And above all, maintaining proper form is key to protecting your joints.
