Avatar f tn This has probably be asked about a billion times but I give it a shot. I'm a 31 year old male I'm in great shape. I have a spot on my left knee if I bend my knee and knead on it it's a sharp shooting electric like pain on the outside of the left knee almost dead even with the top outside corner of my knee cap.
Avatar f tn ve has some serious knee pain on the top of and to the left of my kneecap. Theres also now a slight red spot on the inside left of my knee. I now drive a school bus and if I sit for too long, the pain is almost unbearable. Just wondering what it could possibly be? Thanks!

Avatar m tn Call the Dr Friday after PT I am going to see him Wed. On the CPM 3 times a day 2hr each time.
Avatar f tn For the past 6 weeks I have been experiencing pain in the back of my knee and down my calf muscle in my right leg. If i rest either with my feet up or down, when I go to stand my leg from my knee to my foot is very stiff and sore. I am unable to kneel as it feels like a massive burst of pain behind the knee into my calf muscle as if i have severly sprained it. When standing, if i transfer any weight onto my right leg, i get pain from the back of the knee right down my calf.
Avatar n tn Today I CANNOT put weight on it and it is swollen. The pain originates on the inside of my knee, not in the soft spot next to the patella, but outside that. At this pt. the pain has spread all over my knee, but to touch it is super tender in that inside spot. I have iced it and put heat on it. Not sure what to do at this pt. My foot on the side of the injured knee feels asleep. Can someone give me advice. Should I see a doctor? Or can this be dealt with at home?
Avatar n tn For my third injection he seemed to hit the same spot as in the first and second series. I did NOT get the calf pain and it did help my knee pain. This is just a guess on my part, but I think if the doctor does not inject it into the correct spot that it goes into the muscles and not the joint.
Avatar f tn I have a question. I had a knee scope (to clean out scarr tissue underneath knee cap) on 3-26-2012 I only took a week off of work & started PT 9 days after surgery. I am walking better & the bending is getting easier. My question is (my PT guy could not answer) why do I still have fluid on the top of my knee (left side) if the holes are at the bottom sides of the knee cap.
Avatar n tn Almost a year ago when on a short run, I started feeling this sharp pain in my right knee towards the lower, outside area. I used to run track for years and never had any knee issues. It started out of no where and ever since, if I go on a run for longer than .75 mile, I get the same sharp pain again. If I continue running with the pain, I'll feel it in the same spot for the next 24-48 hours, especially when going downstairs/upstairs and of course when running.
Avatar f tn Last week, I had a softball hit me on the leg and the next day twisted by knee. There is a spot below to the left of my right knee, that has a burning sensation. It wakes me up at night, it's kind of a burning ache. I is painful to the touch, not so painful that I have had to take anything, just uncomfortable. Also it's got a kind of numb feeling when I touch it, but that is the only time I notice the numbness.
Avatar m tn If you need fluid removed from the knee this is unpleasant. Extra fluid in the knee makes it hard to bend and causes additional pain. I had fluid removed from my right knee and that alone made the knee fell better. I was told it would take a few weeks after my final injection before I would notice a difference. I can tell you that my knees fell better, the amount of popping and cracking with sharp pain are all most gone.
Avatar m tn I just had recurring pain in the knee. So far so good. I have had no after effects and it has worked good. I don't have quite the active lifestyle you have either. But I was really impressed with results. My next option is knee replacement also. Good luck. P.s. You don't ever have to take any more after the first round if that workks for you, and if I'm not mistaken you are only allowed to take 2rounds at a time.
Avatar m tn I took Acyclovir for four days and suppressed it, but yesterday it sneaked back. I get a frequent sharp shooting pain in right groin area, still happening. In a way, I want it to break out so that I can see what and where it will go. Does this sound familiar at all? Thanks for helping out.
Avatar f tn Hello All, I've never used a site like this before so please be patient with me, hopefully I've got this in the right spot. I've been living with knee pain for the past 10+ years. It literally comes and goes, I can get it every day to every couple of days to not having any pain for weeks and then out the blue it happens.
Avatar f tn I had some mild pain in the calf of my left leg. My doctor said it is not a clot. The pain has gotten extensively worse now affecting the knee. I went back to doctor and the doctor said it is arthritis of the knee and that, at this point, no tests were necessary. Well, in spite of anti-inflammatory meds, I cannot put my full weight down on my leg without pain that seems more concentrated directly under the knee. I am walking around limping.
Avatar f tn It's been more than two months since my last injection. So I don't think it's going to get better. The injections took away pretty much all my pain for the 3 weeks I was getting them and then for about 2 weeks after that. Then it just came right back. It's not really a shooting pain it's more of a stabbing pain in one spot. The only part of my leg that aches is my knee.
Avatar n tn The pain in near my knee cap.
Avatar n tn You definitely need to see your doctor about the joint pain in your knee. If he thinks this is the same knee problem that improved when you took a medrol dose pack in the past, he might decide to try that treatment again. You can usually take steroids (pills, IV, or by joint injection) while using Copaxone-just like you did when you were using Betaseron. (I think that's what you were asking about?
Avatar m tn ) Also, I noticed that when I raised my right arm, I would feel intense pain in my lower left back. The pain was sharp/stabbing pain. My question is this: Should I go see a doc or wait to see if it improves at all? The only reason I want to wait is because I'm afraid my doctor is going to think I'm a hypochondriac and stop seeing me.
Avatar m tn t suggest arthritis to me, I have arthritis of the knee and I get pain in the knee, also in muscles that work the knee. I don't get numbness anywhere else. I'm not medically qualiified but a doctor should check this out, whatever it is you will be better off with treatment.
Avatar m tn 2 weeks ago about one inch above the same spot on my eyebrow it started doing the same thing. I barely touch that spot and I get a pain in my head (feel more towards the front and top this time). Every serious on set has been in the winter if it matters. Anyone else ever hear of this? Could it be another nerve issue? Something unrelated?
