I have been reading all of the posts. I too have been having a sharp shooting pain just above my knee on my right thigh. It started about four months ago after i started to use new "made for me" insoles. At first it was once a week, then it was every few days, then it was everyday, some days there would be several. I have had MRIs, x-rays and ultra sounds. I have been to a chiropractor, orthapedic surgeon, and just today a neurologist. No one can find any reason for these pains.
I twisted my knee and when it happen I heard and felt a pop on the inside of my knee. Also, now when I walk, I have pain and crackling on the outside, under the knee. When I am walking and I have to turn or piviot, I get a pain that runs the inside of my knee. And now I can just be standing there and my knee feels like it is really loose and feels like I hyperextended in, the knee pushes back. How ling should I wait to go to the doctor or should I continue to try and heal it myself.
Hi! I'm sorry to hear about your knee. It sounds to me like either a ligament or possibly cartilage. Does it feel unstable or is it still giving out on you? Does it ache after sitting for long amounts of time? Is your pain off to the side of the knee or under your knee cap? These answers may help me know better.
For 2 years I have had dyshidrodic eczema on my right hand that steroids never completely touch. My right knee feels itchy to the bone sometimes and there is no relief. And recently my heart feels as though it is beating really hard.
I am only 28 yo. I have considered Celiacs due to the hand and trouble I have with bowel. I am not sure what else to think. I am just worried about my feet because this is so unusual.
Thank you for any help!
You need to know I have arthritis in both knees and no cartilage left under knee caps. My knee instantly was hurting but mostly when trying to walk normal. I can walk stiff legged and it doesn't hurt too bad but flex the knee and it has sharp pain like i have walking up and down stairs because of the knee caps. I sit in a normal position but lifting foot causing lots of pain around knee cap. I'm guessing I probably pulled something. Have put ice on it and taken ibu.
I was playing volleyball and jumped and landed on my knee, the first few days my knee hurt too bad to walk on. It has been about a month now and I can walk with no problem but if I turn or back up or go down or up hills it still hurts sometimes. It also feels like something is moving when I turn sometime .Could this be serious? Should I see a doctor?
Unfortunately, it is imposible to make a diagnosis from this simple description. If your pain is persistant, and does not respond to a short period of rest or activity modification, then I would suggest evaluation by an orthopedist.
At that time, your doctor will take a thorough history, examine your knee and entire lower extremity, and use xrays and MRI if necessary, to formulate a diagnosis.
After a dianosis is reached, then a treatment plan that makes sense for you canbe instituted.
From there hopefully your doctor can perform tests to find out if there is tissue damage, or what the exact injury is. Until then, I highly suggest you stay off of your knee as much as you can, i.e. no running. You can try ice, or heat, whichever feels better. I would be careful when stretching as well in case you aggravate your knee. Good luck and I hope your knee feels better soon!
I recently had an MRI for a knee injury. The diagnosis is "an unstable tear involving the posterior horn and body with vertical and horizontal components extending to the articular surface. The tear extends into the posterior horn root attachment". WIll this injury require surgery?
I had a basketball injury today- a player ran his knee into the side of my knee. I went down immediately. I thought it was a knee injury b/c that is what hurt first. Then the pain moved down my leg to the top of my ankle just above the foot. Then the pain moved back up just below the knee to the outside of my upper calf - between the calf and the shin bone. My left side is sore and has a numming feeling. What do you think this injury is?
t have a car, walking everywhere), and yet i have been gaining weight
I also have a low sex drive
I also seem to have a predisposition to ligament injury and chronic disease (frequently have knee pain w/o having recieved a satisfactory diagnosis from 3 knee/joint/arthritis specialists, and have recurring tennis elbow in both arms brought on with very little use)
Any ideas?
When I went to my friends house next door in our complex , her status is unknown, she kissed my injury as she was trying to be cute ( kissed the booboo) and I see my blood on her lips so I told her and she went to wash it. And she gave me the bandage. Question
1Do I have a risk from her kiss drifty on my injury?
2 she have a risk from my blood?
t be doing to prevent further injury to my knees. This assessment is obviously something that I really need, and it would be beneficial to me. I'm not sure how long a run assessment in PT is going to take, but I dont think my lungs are going to be able to take it.
I'm open to any advice/feedback that anyone can give me. Has anyone ever been in a similar situation?
