Avatar m tn Okay, hopefully this doesn't turn out too long. I'm NOT looking for a diagnosis, obviously. I just need opinions. And yes, I have seen a doctor about this and so far have gotten nowhere which is why I am on here asking for ideas. I have had a "bad knee" for about six years now (as far as I can remember it's been since 2007). My knee pops a lot, especially when I bend down; I can actually HEAR it crunching and popping!
Avatar f tn I had gastric bypass surgery & now that ive lost 82 lbs, im having more knee pain than before the surgery. I would occasionally have knee pain when I was extremely overweight whenever going up & down stairs. Now that I ve lost the weight, my knees hurt more often & I have to be careful when stepping up or down stairs, or bending over to pick something up off the floor. Is this because im not working out at all?

Avatar m tn I have had knee pain in my left knee for about 3 years now. When i am sitting on a chair and i straighten my left leg the pain occurs, and there must be something wrong because my right knee is fine. I also get the pain when i am lying in bed. The pain is most apparent when i lift my left knee cap, you know how you can tense or whatever and your knee cap will move up.
Avatar f tn Over the past 4 days I have been experiencing pain/Throbbing in my right knee. I do not recall doing any activities which may have damaged it in anyway. The pain feels like it comes from underneath my knee cap, slightly to the right. It throbbs when I am sat down, and if i move my knee left or right whilst my foot is on the floor I get a very sharp shooting pain which makes me jump.
Avatar f tn Severe joint pain in the knee and later also in the fingers. The knee thing turned out to be ostenecrosis where the femur of my right leg was dying. now I think this was all caused by the Tamoxifen, but what matters is that my vit D was very, very low, and it is in many people with cancer and bc. After I found supplements that were effective, and the D normalized, my leg and knee went back to normal. it just started one day without any injury or provocation and it stopped the same way.
Avatar n tn You should take vitaminB supplements and should consult a physiotherapist for pain management.Neck and back extension exercises will help you.Avoid bending and lifting heavy weights.
Avatar n tn In some individuals, the kneecap tends to rub against one side of the knee joint, and the cartilage surface become irritated, and knee pain is the result. Allowing the inflammation of chondromalacia to settle is the first step of treatment. Avoiding painful activities that irritate the knee for several weeks, followed by a gradual return to activity is important. In this time, cross-training activities, such as swimming, can allow an athlete to maintain their fitness while resting the knee.
Avatar n tn Hello, The knee pain can be associated with any condition so a proper examination and diagnosis is required if it bothers you. It can be knee injury due to knee sprain , prior knee injury ,dislocated knee , dislocated patella, femoral condyle fracture, torn ligament , knee overuse , knee infection due to any bacterial infection , knee inflammation due to synovitis or bursitis or Knee arthritis due to arthritis , osteoarthritis , rheumatoid arthritis or gout and any tumor. Take care!
Avatar f tn Hi, i only placed this question in this category because my family historically suffers autoimmune disease. I don't really know what the problem is. I have serious pain not in my joints and i am not sure it is in my muslces either. it seems to be tendons. from the elbow to the wrist and from the thigh to the knee and knee to ankles. it have had two 'attacks' like this in the last month.
Avatar n tn I experienced it since I was a child, now I'm 22 and it's getting worst especially when I'm sitting in a car for a long period of time and when I want to straight or move it, that's the time that the pain will got worse, I can't even move my knee! but though i can move my toes. Even when I walk or kneel, their is a mild pain. And for some time, even in my left femoral bone area there is a local pain in front of my leg.
Avatar n tn And have tried everything he has asked me too. The only thing that has worked for my knee pain that allows me to be pain free ,is pain pills, but I am afraid to ask him for them because of the immediate labeling(which even you are having as you read this) that comes from someone asking for a strong pain medication. Stay off the knee! I can’t, I have no desire to be stationary until I am dead.Limit your activities> I already do, no running, jumping, or hard impact sports.
Avatar f tn Then after months of suffering and the doctor not knowing what it was, I did some research online and I came across some postings from other people having the same problem and that took K supplements and actually were able to be better. Well I got my mom her K pills and the pain in the knee was mostly gone, temporarily. After like a month or so the pain came back but this time in the neck, lasted like a couple of weeks like that and then now it is on her upper arms.
189586 tn?1297254061 Hi Vicki, actually feeling pretty good, still taking all those supplements so I think thats helping. I have heard alot about the exercise issue here and thats fine with some but some of us (me, 4 back surgerys,2 knee surgerys, shoulder surgery, awaiting knee replacement just cant) I was always into pumping that iron and I think it ruined my joints! So now I just do the eliptical (when I can) 3-4 days week, but I do live in legitimate pain and eat nsaids quite often.....
Avatar f tn Osteoarthritis negatively affects the quality of synovial fluid and decreases its ability to protect and lubricate your joint. SUPARTZ Joint Fluid Therapy supplements the poor quality HA in your painful knee with additional highly purified HA. Refer: http://www.supartz.
Avatar m tn Sometimes it makes disable for anything. There are some natural pain reliefs to prevent knee pain without depending on the medications with side effects. 1. If you are facing knee problems regularly than use braces (if you are involved in regular activities which involves movement) 2. Exercises are good for knee problems but always warm up yourself or do some stretching before doing any exercises. 3.
Avatar n tn Hi, About 3 weeks ago I bumped my left knee into the corner of the bed and was in excrutiating pain for about a minute or so. The skin broke on the knee cap. I put ice on it for 20 minutes and kept the leg elevated during this time. The pain was localized to the area of the broken skin. A few days later, a scab formed where the skin was broken, and although the area still hurt when pressed, I had no problems walking, jogging or swimming.
Avatar m tn For over a year now I have had right sided pain and swelling. MRI's and x-rays show nothing, ana came back a very low positive for lupus. I have no pain on my left side. My face, neck, arm and knee are swollen and have been so for about 1-2 years. I had my eyes tested and right eye is far worse with a stigmatism, that apparently on 10% of normal people have. Rhemy told me I had fibromyalgia, my Dr. disagrees because it's only on my right side but he has no answers at this time.
1587585 tn?1309432260 I can straighten my leg all the way (but its sore) When I bend my knee back it really hurts. The pain seems to be coming from behind my knee. What do you think is causing the pain?
1415174 tn?1453243103 Sorry for your pain, and I share it -- PT didn't help me, either, though it didn't hurt me. I've got a bad knee, arm pain, and lower back pain and what feels like a pinched nerve in my buttocks as well, and doctors can't agree on a diagnosis. I can tell you that the B6 neurotoxicity only affects a minority of people who take it, but I wouldn't want to be one of them.
Avatar f tn he will not prescribe any pain medications as I am a recovering alcoholic. I have recently been having pain in my upper thigh, groin, & leg(not in my hip). This doctor now is telling me that i have slight arthritis in my hip that is causing this pain, but pre-surgery, i never even had ANY pain in this area of my body. I am in pain while standing, sitting, or laying down. I cannot sleep for more than 2 hours at a time as I wake up with horrible pains in my leg & buttock.
Avatar m tn three months i quit the job then the pain felt very bad. went away but i have a weird cracking feeling in my knee like the joints where the knee joints. i had insurance couple of months ago and had a complete stranger come to my house for knee therapy that didn't work out. I then cancled it. told me to do some stupid twisting knee excersie. i tried therapy for two months didn't work out. then i just put a knee strap using a old cut up sock. like a hommade brace tignting my knee.
Avatar f tn I have been on Forteo daily injections for 1 year and I have experienced considerable joint pains which did not exist prior to treatment. My left hip and knee, my right knee and my hands have been getting worse each month. Has anyone else experienced similar reactions?
Avatar m tn Hot peppers are a traditional remedy for back pain dating back two thousand years. The peppers are ground up and placed in olive oil and rubbed around the affected area. The peppers contain capsaican. The reason this works is that the body can transmit only one pain signal nat a time. The skin senses the capsaican and sends a "pain" signal, but there isn't really pain. The Capsaican simulates pain. The nerve pain, however, gets blocked.
