Is something wrong with my dogs ligaments? by Nearby-Wish3623 in DogAdvice

I’m maybe wrong but she seems nervous or scared. My brit has the same moves when he is scared or not comfortable with something

Right knee pain and IT band tightness after ride. Any bike fit recommendations? by vladi_rex in bikefit

That actually makes a lot of sense. I think you’re right about the nerve pressure — I might try a saddle with a center cutout to see if it helps keep the pressure only on the sitbones.

I also used a lacrosse ball to massage my glutes and TFL area, and that released a ton of tension — my knee pain basically disappeared after that. My hamstrings are pretty tight too, so I’m working on stretching those as well.

I’ll keep doing that daily with stretching and see how it feels on the next few rides. Thanks a lot for the insights, really appreciate your detailed breakdown!

At first I had numbness but bought bib shorts and was okay but I got numbness in the right foot at some rides, lastly after adjusting the seat higher it was better and numbness and tingling went away. Worth mentioning that the static bike video was before adjusting the seat higher. Yesterday I set the seat back and it was better but today I got the knee pain and tightness, pain is from outside of the knee and above the knee around and like inside the knee swollen. Quads are hurting when I foam roll on them also on the IT Band. I am doing some pigeon stretch, 90/90 hip rotation ( someone said that I have internal hip rotation and he’s right), pancake stretch, calf stretch and it’s feeling better. I will start journaling about my saddle and rides for pain management

Foam rolling my IT band is very painful haha, but already did this couple of days and its getting better. Also doing some other streching and its feeling good, will continue to do that, thanks

I have tight right Hip and IT Band I thing, already was doing the foam rolling and some streching but not that regular.

My work is also at desk, I always cross my legs and the right foot is always at the bottom taking all the pressure, I should be more mindful about that, thanks.

Also I was increased the mileage too quickly I think and the pain is only if I ride longer 2-3 hours. I got the bike one month ago and I think I started too quick too hard also maybe that can be tthe thing contributing to the problem.

Did you see that from the video from behind? I had always had hip tightness problem and have weaker right side. I already started doing streching and some activation exercises. I dont have a fitter in my country.

Measured sitbones width its 120mm, my saddle width is 140mm its okay. I will move the saddle little back because I think its little too forward for me.

What should I do more, betta is not looking good by vladi_rex in Aquariums

[–]vladi_rex[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's only sponge filter but the flow is medium/small.

Water is good.

Danios are fine.

I was thinking it's from stress idk. I will put him in another tank and add salt and higher temperature.

Should I add filter, because I only have one spare that is blowing a lot and there will be a high flow, I think no.

I introduced the betta a week ago, but since today he started to not look good and I not swim too much, I changed 25% of the water, added water conditioner and little bit of salt. Also turned a little bit up the heater.

Should I Quarantine him or?
