One week before a race the other day, I went to practice last Ashigara-toge for my last training (Why Ashigara-toge? More details in this book)
…が、その夜から膝が痛いじゃないですか！（泣）
...but I have a sore knee from that night.
右膝は以前水がたまりました。焦って朝晩のお灸の日々です。
My right knee had water before. The daily morning and evening rush coals.
大会は無事乗り切りましたが、大会が終わってからもどうも膝がニキニキします。
そうラン先輩・ラン友宛につぶやいてみたら
I was alright at a race, but still have funny feeling at my knee. I tweeted so to my running friends.
お返事いただきました、ありがとうございます：）
They got back like: "1) if you have more pain after running, take a break. 2) if you have pain when you are not running, go to hospital. 3) if you are ok to run somehow, make sure to slow down than usual and see how it goes"
"how about giving a massage?"
「ニキニキ」って擬態語１２０％で申し訳ないのですが、小人がお皿の中でちょっと騒ぎつつ、しいて言えば痛み多+痒さ少という感じでしょうか。
What I used niki-niki is 120% imitative word, sorry about that. If I try to describe it hard, it'd be little men are having a party inside of my knee and that would make pain and a little itchy feeling.
というわけで今日もお灸を据えました。
据える箇所は膝蓋（しつがい。お皿のすぐ下左右）、血海（けっかい。膝蓋骨上部内側から指３本あがったところ）、梁丘（りょうきゅう。膝蓋骨上部外側から指３本あがったところ）です。
Anyhow, I did moxa today again.
Where you put them are Shitsugai (right below your knee dish), Kekkai (three fingers above from your dish and inside), Ryukyu (three fingers above from your dish and outside).
膝蓋骨は写真の赤い矢印が骨の淵、指が骨の最大幅を示しています。
A patella (dish) 's lower edge is what red allows are.
お灸は燃え尽きる最後に「キュッ！」と熱くなります。そして燃え尽きてもしばらく置いて余熱を効かせておきます。でも、それを無理して我慢することはありません。気持ちいいところで、ストレスなく試すのが一番だと思います。
Where moxa is burnt out, you'd feel almost really burnt. They said it'd be good to keep it for a while after it's burnt out, but you don't have to put it through yourself if you don't like it. It'd be the best how you feel relax at most, I'd say.
