@Kloi Best to inject it, in the area of injury. Compounding pharmacies can make it or can order as a research chemical. Though from the sound of it, you ought to get the knee looked at.
A 5mg vial of BPC157 slit into daily 20 shots might fix a lot
I've thought about taking BPC157, I think you can take it orally but I've also thought through specific injection sights.
but really you want to know what the problem is.
Exactly why I'll hold off until I've exhausted addressing the areas thoroughly via stretching/diet/targeted exercises.
It more than likely stems from the hips/hip flexor. I've discussed before I had a hip scope at 22-23yo "to hopefully avoid full replacement in your late 30s."
There's active bone on bone wear in both hip sockets and one of my shoulders. My body is jacked.
Found out years later o ave EDS which is some bull shit gentic where symptoms can literally be opposite depending on which subcategory you're out in.
Speaking of my body hates me. Feels like I over stretched the area where my left knee and hamstring come together on last warm up set of deadlifts.
So I just stopped the work out and moved on to stretching/hot tub/suana.
Fuck working through injuries. I'm paying to go to the gym.
@kloi have a look at those links. Not sure how much time I have before my phone goes back into my pocket, so I'm going to mess with some other shit instead of reiterating things I've said in other threads.
Do look into collagen as well. It helps my joints and skin.
@Bozza strongly seconded. Glucosamine plus chondroitin is the most important supplement to take (at least for me).

Few times a year I'll take 2 weeks off the gym. No training whatsoever.
Just took my first recovery week ever. Looked back over my lifts and realized I'd consistently been progressing for 36 weeks, lifting heavy 3 to 6 times per week.
All my joint and tendon pain is gone that I'd been experiencing the last month. Yahh my lifts took a tiny hit but its like noob gains all over again for the next month.
Only area that seems to hurt more from inactivity is my right outside knee. Something in there is tight/fucked.
If you're still making progress on a given regime then keep running it. Don't fix what ain't broke.
Yahh I could have clarified, I may run the same 4-6 week cycle, multiple times in a row, assuming there's no issues.
You should change things up every 2-6 weeks
This right here is an idea I've recently adopted. Running 4-6 week cycles that build up to the bigger picture.
That and take a deload week in-between these cycle.
