My wife gets really bad knee pain while hiking. It only happens on the way down. It never hurts on the way up. Even if they are hurting and we get to a spot that gains elevation they will stop hurting.
Does anyone have a suggestion for this. I was looking at mabey getting some nice trekking poles. She wore some neoprene knee braces on our last trip to bald mtn. and they didn't help.
I think we will probably end up going to a doc because they hurt her so bad. When hiking down it hurts to bend her knees at all.
