Avatar n tn About a week ago, my knee started feeling sharp pain only when pressure is applied. I don't remember what exactly my position was (maybe I kneeled, maybe my leg touched the under side of a table). But anyway, whatever it was that touched my knee felt like a tiny sharp needle instead! There is no swelling or any visible sign. I tried to find out what it was but there was nothing there. I rubbed my knee, sort of poked at it to try and pinpoint where the pain came from.
Avatar f tn i have a buring tearing sensation in knee when little pressure is applied?
Avatar f tn ) It has since progressed to mid-quad, and over the past year, I pain has worsened, especially when there is even the slightest pressure applied to my ankle, calf, or knee area (soft parts of those areas-not the bone). I do not feel the pain when I am active, standing, or sitting- ONLY when pressure (light or firm) is applied- like during a massage or when my dog rubs pass my leg. I want to mention, I do not have tenderness in my feet or anywhere else like I am experiencing in my lower legs.
Avatar m tn The cold numbing spry helps when then injection starts, however you feel a slight amount of pain from the pressure of the fluid passing into the knee, the pain goes away pretty fast. 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.
Avatar f tn Two hours ago, I fell about three metres and landed with all my weight on my left knee. I felt no click or immediate pain, but when I tried to move it, it was shaky. I rested and applied ice, but everytime I put even a little bit of weight on my left leg, it hurts in the area of the lateral collateral ligaments. Have I damaged a ligament or tendon? Approximately when will I be able to walk again? Thanks in advance, Haylee.
Avatar f tn no other problem I go for check up regularly no any other problem every thing is good only pain in Knees also MRI done no problem found pain in knees and muscle pain in legs it's really hard to bend over.
Avatar f tn This ice and other anti-inflammatory remedies usually work best when applied along side of the lumbar spine where pain is felt, above the erector s. and quadratus l. muscles, above the hip bone. Some people receive relief at pressure points located in the center of the buttock, the mid-thigh, and back of the knee. Lately I've seen a television commercial for an elastic band with "magical" properties, designed to apply pressure to these pressure points to relieve sciatic pain.
Avatar f tn t use the knee cap if your knee is stable because it will weaknen your muscles more.
Avatar f tn The pain is 10/10 and I can only unlocking it by hanging my knee over my other leg while lying on my stomach relieving pressure on the outside of the knee. This all started beginning when I injured my knee sliding on wet grass my cleat got stuck and twisted my ankle. At first the locking would occur multiple times a week and was extreme. Mri’s including a contrast were clean. I no longer deal with the problem except for the fact I cannot preform the exact slide that injured it.
Avatar f tn Do the headaches associated with Chiari stop when pressure is applied and then return when the pressure is removed? Would a typical 11-year-old with a Chiari malformation or syrinx or something have only mild symptoms until she hits young adulthood? Any other things I should look for?
Avatar f tn Does anyone know a way to ease hip pain at night in the third trimester? I sleep with a pillow between the knees, knee to ankle and have tried two pillows. This isn't enough. This is a recent development so haven't figured it out yet.
Avatar n tn I did find stretching out my hamstring muscles the most effective way of overcoming sciatica. And heat always felt good applied as well when pregnant.
Avatar m tn I wanted to know what is the word for that stuff that happens when you put pressure on nerves for long time, like while sleeping when you put your arm under your head or when sitting a squat position and then you feel like numbness and like insects rumbling in the area around the knee and mainly behind the knee area, when ever it happens it is just for a couple of minutes and then slowly goes of and then its like it never happened.

Avatar f tn Then when I go to stand there is that serve pain and then the pain intensifies as weight/pressure is applied for about a good 2-5 minutes were I wince and get weak in the knees because of the pain. Then it all passes and I don’t feel anything, it just goes away, unless I go into a sitting position again. However, on a pain scale to touch or bump my knee caps is between 8-10, i puts me through the roof for a good 30secs to a minute until I can regain my composure.
Avatar n tn but to be safe and to make sure you can not get injured participating in your sport...see a Dr and ask about how you felt when pressure was applied and show the area to the Dr....see if there is an underlying issue that you felt the way you did . Let us know what you find out.
Avatar n tn SO I AM HAVING PRETTY EXTREME PAIN ONLY WHEN KNEEING ON LEFT KNEE--USUALLY DOMINATE KNEE THAT I ALWAYS KNEE ON WITH ALL MY WIEGHT ON FIRST. DOESNT HURT TO WALK ON OR BEND OR ANY OTHER MOTION. RECENTLY I CAN FEEL SENSATIONS FROM A LITTLE BELOW MY KNEE LIKE "PINS AND NEEDLES" BUT VERY SLIGHT. I CAN LIGHTLY TOUCH BELOW CENTER OF KNEE AND FEEL SAME PAIN WITH VERY LITTLE PRESSURE LIKE A SLIGHT RUB.

Avatar m tn How do i get rid of pain that only occurs when i apply pressure to my right leg. When bending the pain increases sharply. My age is 19 but how to take away this pain?
Avatar f tn I would not be worried except for the fact that they occur when slight pressure-even when applied from an object as soft as a pillow-is applied to the back of my head (the migraines do not occur when I apply pressure to the sides of my head). Do you recommend a cat scan??
Avatar f tn I had ablation done on 1/29/16 and was in recovery when I formed a hematoma on my right groin. 4 people then applied pressure for an agonizing 1/2 hour. I am very swollen and bruised. I am home now and am applying cold compress and taking tylenol for any discomfort. Is there anything else I should be doing?
Avatar m tn I have pain right above my kneecap, but when I sit it does not hurt to be bent, and when I straitghten it out it feels like it pulls at my kneecap. It is my left knee and when I go up or down stairs it hurts. I have applied heat and ice but it does not appear to be going away. There is a little pain in the back also. I have had my right knee xrayed and have had an MRI and have a torn lateral and medial miscus that needs to be repaired as well as a baker cyst on the back.
888748 tn?1241893015 I have had to quit working, and it is getting hard to walk, and I am afraid the knee will give out, and also the other knee is starting to give me problems.. I have no insurance so the replacement is not an option for probably another year. I am looking for suggestions on losing weight, and being able to function daily without so much pain, and also to keep my other knee from deteriorating so quickly. Any suggesitons?
