I just received my OW cert and enjoyed the dives a lot.
Unfortunately I've noticed that I now seem to get stiffness in my right knee that I didn't before. The stiffness is not constant, but happens after driving for a while or being at the computer for awhile.
The only open water dives I've done were the certification dives. Both were within all the safety limits, depth was never more than 30ft. Could it be DCS?
I'm 31, a smoker and in 'fair to good' health ( a bit overweight ).
I tore the medial collateral ligament in this knee about 15 years ago, though this is not always where I feel the stiffness.
I may be paranoid but the stiffness began at the same time as the dive.
I am planning to see my doctor, but I don't know his experience with dive problems.
Could this be DCS related?
Any help is appreciated, thanks.
