Avatar m tn A guy of your dimensions with a sore foot/knee could compound your injury in just moving.If you are a college athlete, your sport-medicine department probably has a skilled coach who deals with players' injuries. If not, your regular doctor should be able to offer some advice. In the end, athletes of your size may need to consult an Orthopedist.
Avatar n tn Hello, About 6 months ago I started to do some running and after the first month or so started getting pain above my knee, so I stopped. Since then the pain hasn't gone away and I'm getting desperate now as nothing seems to work. The pain is at its worst when going down stairs, steep hills, or when I put weight on it such as in a lunge or squat. It's had periods of getting better then when I think I'm going to be pain free it always gets worse.
Avatar n tn The ACL is critical for knee function in athletes who require knee stability in activities such as running, cutting, jumping, and kicking. The ACL originates on the posteromedial aspect of the lateral femoral condyle and inserts anterior to and between the intercondylar eminences of the tibia. The ACL is composed of 2 bundles, an anteromedial bundle and a posterolateral bundle. What did the orthopaedician say which one is affected? What kind of imaging study is being done?
Avatar m tn Alright! Will do! Can I ask whether a knee pain could cause hip problems?
Avatar n tn Hi, How are you? Chondromalacia patella is a common cause of kneecap pain or anterior knee pain. Often called "Runner's Knee," this condition often affects young, otherwise healthy athletes. Chondromalacia is due to an irritation of the undersurface of the kneecap. 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.
Avatar f tn If symptoms persist, if the patient cannot risk the delay of a potentially unsuccessful period of observation (eg, elite athletes), or in cases of a locked knee, surgical treatment is indicated. The basic principle of meniscus surgery is to save the meniscus. Tears with a high probability of healing with surgical intervention are repaired. However, most tears are not repairable and resection must be restricted to only the dysfunctional portions, preserving as much normal meniscus as possible.
4113881 tn?1415850276 I have chronic knee pain...Ive been in physical therapy since last stinking year! I bought a TENS machine...I ice....heat....NSAID's....I use all the hocus pocus...snake oil...blah blah....NADA works! So...here I am thinking whats my next move. PRP injections cost anywheres from $500-$6000. Athletes get them all the time and are back on the field...but insurance doesn't cover it (To my knowledge) Before I break the bank...
Avatar f tn He is a tri-athlete chiro focused on runners/athletes and just does some preventative deep massages and ART. My knee sometimes has a little feel but is pretty much in very good shape because of this. My mileage is between 30 and 35 miles a week and I have built up over 2 months. I run 4 days a week for training. I ran 5.5 miles yesterday and getting out of bed today, I didn't notice any feeling. If I twist my ankle around then I notice some tenderness - otherwise I can walk fine.
569793 tn?1216887381 Things went well for the next two weeks and then I started to experience swelling around my knee. No pain, only swelling. After the season I took 5 weeks off like my doctor said, no activity whatsoever, only walking. I slowly started to ease my way back into playing, weight lifting to strengthen the muscles and running. The first two weeks were fantastic, no swelling. I took a day off and woke up the next day with swelling, for no reason.
Avatar m tn Last night I had a pain under my leg almost behind my knee a lil to the right... I felt it and there was a small lil knot there... I went to test at the 3 week mark just to see if they could tell me if I had swollen nodes in my arm... The lady felt around my neck shoulders and armpit... I had a pain in my left armpit and it kinda went away now... But i did feel a lil jello circle around there... She said I didnt have swollen nodes and that they would feel like marbles and they wouldnt hurt....
Avatar f tn I ran a spring tri about a year and a half ago.. at which time I pulled my groin, as athletes know "taking time off" usually is not a word in our vocabulary bank.. as the year went by I continued to run on the pull groin to the point that I could not run anymore and was forced to take a week off. For the last 6 months I have been able to crack, pop, click, my medial aspect of my groin. I have had MRI performed and X-rays.. Have been to 3 Drs.
Avatar n tn This may occur in runners and also is more common in athletes, especially in sports that involve jumping and in people who do a lot of walking. If it persists and other symptoms occur such as pain and swelling, have this evaluated further for proper management. A complete physical examination must be done to reach a diagnosis. Take care and regards.
Avatar m tn The first question is, what kind of surgery did he get? If he got that quick in the office laparoscopy that allows you to go back to activities in two weeks he never actually got the meniscus fixed really. It's quick but it doesn't hold up if you keep doing things that are hard on the knee -- it leaves the meniscus weaker. Actually, all surgeries tend to leave whatever was operated on weaker, as doctors can't usually do better than nature did.
Avatar n tn Top NYC Orthopedic Surgeon felt loose peroneal nerve in knee. Doctor has never heard of this condition and has referred me to Giants top knee doc. Had MRI, showed thinning of posterior ligament. Should mention the the injury is most likely sports related. I am collegiate wrestler. Has anyone ever heard of a LOOSE PERONEAL NERVE?

358486 tn?1294776388 In all of these cases hip arthroscopy has become an important tool for more rapid return of athletes to the playing field, or to extend the athletic careers of elite athletes and weekend warriors in the sports they enjoy. The benefit of hip arthroscopy is that the recovery is much simpler than for open hip surgery. Patients can usually put as much weight as tolerated on the hip immediately following surgery, although crutches or a cane may be necessary for the first several days. .
Avatar n tn Almost a year ago the physician and I agreed to having a total knee replacement done thinking that the pain would subside. That was a joke! The pain is still just as bad as day one. I go back to the doctor in April and it doesn't look like it will be good news for him. Now I will have to have surgery on the Left knee joint. I will wait for that though. I don't know what I am looking for in treatment now or if any!
Avatar f tn Hello- After many, many acupuncture treatments, last week I had a treatment for knee arthritis in which I felt excruciating pain with a needle insertion below my knee and my foot kicked up simultaneously. Four days later, I have increasing burning and electricity pains radiating down the front of my shin along the tops of my feet. It also feels as though someone were slicing into my ankle or a very, very bad ankle sprain.
Avatar n tn Really can't stick this pain much longer !! Having really bad pain in both knees can't walk up stairs or down hurts to bed or even sit someone help !!
