Avatar m tn Hi hoping you are still on this blog because I'm losing my mind with same! My right knee has been 4 times the SZ of my left for 4 months now and i don't know what to do ( either does my dr) it does hurt when I put any pressure on it and it does hurt with certain movements.. I do have a bakers cyst behind this same knee that also is constantly flared up but apparently should not be causing the top of the knee to swell up ( no recent injuries) or knee injuries ever..

I us very upset and told him I am not one of those types of parents who don't care about my child! He said he is knocked kneed and the pain is nothing serious since everything cam back ok. He said since he is active and tests are clear he is ok. He said he does not doubt the pain but that it is not due to anything serious.
Avatar f tn I'm 19 years old. 3 months ago I went in for knee surgery. While I was in recovery they found me in 3rd degree heart block. I was sent home with a heart rate of 40 they thought it was just the pain meds. With in four hours I was unconscious on the bathroom floor with a heart rate of 15 quickly fading. I was rushed to the er and put in cardiac short stay for the night. They ran test after test to make sure anistisa had nothing to do with it.

634874 tn?1254430697 Has anyone out there ever had one toe to become red and painful for no reason? I was home all day in my house shoes and in the evening, I became aware that something hurt in my left toe area. I slipped my house shoe off and saw that the toe next to my small one was blood red and very painful. I never stumped it or anything. I immediately soaked it in hot epson salts water which made it feel some better, but it is still red. How could this happen?? I would appreciate any input.
Avatar f tn My husband, 52 yrs old, no back issues at all, he does have a severe neck problems, he has no symptoms from disc disease He was standing in line at a coffee shop bought the coffee turned to walk and fell on his face, no feeling in his leg at all, no numbness, no pain, he describes it like it wasn't there, when he went to try and get up it took a min to get a feeling back in his leg for him to stand...
Avatar n tn I am a 63-year-old woman in good health. I fell a month ago and there is now liquid on my knee and it is warm to the touch. It doesn't hurt very much. I have no insurance and was wondering if I could try to treat it myself or whether I should definitely see my doctor. Thanks so much!
Avatar n tn Have they tested you for Lymes Disease? Fibromyalgia can now be treated with FDA approved LYRICA. Check their website. Swollen knee: has the doctor referred you to an ortho? I had similar symptom with knee. XRay showed no break/damage. Doctor drained the knee and it did the trick. It was incredible to watch how the knee swelling went down. At the same time he injected some steroids into knee. The 'liquid' was sent to lab to be tested.
701160 tn?1228413523 My Brusa sack on top of the knee cap is swollen again for me. However its swollen more towards the left of the knee rather then the center. About 3 years ago My bursa swelled up due to constant friction of the knee rubbing againts a wrestling gym mat. It was swollen and very irritable/stinging to the touch. The bursa eventually popped and I had to get my knee drained. Right now the Bursa just seems to be swollen.
Avatar f tn The knee xray showed no fracture or other issue - the reason for another doctor ordering xrays was that I am unable to put any direct weight on the knee (kneel on it) and it graunches and carries on when moving it, though this causes no pain. I have no pain on movement, the bruise that was present for six weeks has gone and it is no longer swollen but still this problem remains. Any suggestions as to what it may be?
Avatar f tn t), the other day I applied a lot and I mean a lot, of natural yougurt to my swollen knee and the whole swollen leg, covered it gently with a cloth and slept with it on. It did help, but it is a bit messy. Natural plain yogurt draws out inflammation. it is also good for sprains and strains, sunburn and to apply directly on to the genital area if there is any thrush or itching. Good to eat too to help guard against oral thrush.
Avatar m tn I have knee pain in my right knee when I kneel down on it.About a year ago the same knee for some reason unknown to me got very swollen & had to use crutches for about a week. Anyway when I kneel down it is like kneeling on a tack. Then it has a sensation of a rug burn to the touch. After about five times of this happening I looked more closely. On the right lower outer edge of knee cap it gets a swell pocket. It does not swell up the entire knee just this oval like shaped pocket.
Avatar f tn dear yuki1227 dats pretty sure dat probably der seems to b no other reason for ur knee problem rather than the incident u faced.the only suggestion i wud give is dat u must hve a checkup.. if u feel uncmfrt with d problem of wlking n falling etc etc.cos its better to get d problem solved as earlier.. wish u gud luck.
Avatar n tn it is not inside the nostril either it is in the cartilidge. nothing has happened to me and this makes no sense. I have no other symptoms. no fever no bleeding no runny nose or wattery eyes. has anyone gotten a bona fide medical opinion on this?? seems pretty odd to me...
Avatar n tn the most I can bend is like 90 degrees, after that, I feel a bad pull in my quadriceps muscles. My quadriceps muscles have swollen just above my knee cap. There is no color or pain. It is just that I feel a bad pull when I bend my knee, its swollen, difficult to walk because of the knee bending problem, there is no pain on the swollen part, but it hurts my quadriceps muscles when I try to bend my knee. Please give me a solution to this problem. I will be more than grateful.
Avatar m tn They will look at the fluid taken out for evidence of blood and evaluate you for a possible torn miniscus. Often when the fluid is removed the knee returns to size and the problem simply disappears.
Avatar m tn i felt as if my whole knee dislocated but i didnt hear any pop sound or anythng. Really painful for like 5 min but swelled up later. Went to doc, put ice pack and it all seemed ok. Its 4th week now...all seems okk except its still little swollen and feels little different and the leg feels as if it doesnt have enough power. I can run slowly, bike, clim stairs with no problems except its uncomfortable.
Avatar f tn there is no reason for you to come back several times a day with "symptoms"...symptoms dont diagnose hiv. you have been assessed and advised when to test. nothing more to tell you that you havent been told before.
Avatar f tn It started with my left knee just hurting occasionallu, to my knee hurting all the time, to my knee hurting all the time and then occasional swelling, to my knee hurting all the time and it is swollen 24-7. The pain gets so bad that I get what feels like an electric stabbing pain and my knee gives out. And my hips start hurting as well. I tested for RA and it came back as negative, j went to an orthopedic surgeon, and everything came back nothing.
