Avatar m tn 5y/o, radial bone is still open but lunar bone fused. We took his knee x-ray and almost fused but not fully closed. Dr recommended to use arimidex 4 months to see if it helps to reduce bone matutarion and help a little bit to grow height. Is arimidex safe? What are arimidex side effects? Do you think can we try?

Avatar m tn The wrap was one of those you just pull over the knee, not an actual length of cloth wrapped around the knee and at first I thought it was just the right fit, being a little tight. I wore the wrap for three days, while removing it once in a while to apply some more Hotemin and for showers. I kept it on that long out of fear that if it wasn't present, my knee might wobble too much and I'd injure myself again.
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 n tn I have pain behind my knee and my leg is swollen in the calf. I was checked for blood clot and it was negative. I feel heat coming out of my knee when I place an ice pack on it. It warms the ice pack quickly. My thigh is swollen too, but all the pain is in my knee. It hurts to touch the bones in my knee. My ankles are a little swollen and also the calf on the other leg. I have had a meniscus tear and arthritis in one knee and baker's cyst in the other.

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.
572021 tn?1330905654 My daughter (17) has been complaining of sharp knee pain in the back of her knee that has been keeping her awake for the last few nights.

Avatar m tn Moreover, yesterday my doctor injected depo-medrol on my infected joint. And today my knee is extremely swollen and stiff, more than ever. I can barely bend my knee to 90 degree. My question, Is this swelling and stiffness normal after being injected with depo-medrol ? Or is this a side-effect ?
Avatar n tn I had a bad case of pityriasis rosea when I was a teenager, and every few years patches come back that look similar. For the past year though, I have had them frequently. I will only have a few at a time. I will have one or two patches on my wrists or maybe one below my knee on the back of the leg. They range in size from .5-2 inches across. As I said though, I only have a couple of them at one time, never a full blown case of anything. Does anyone know what it is?
Avatar n tn the next morning i couldnt walk on it the it gradually got better through the week then i went to a skatepark yesterday and when jumping off something it came back it wasnt fully healed yet anyway but it is swollen about 1/2 the size of my knee cap and hurts when i squat, or do things that put pressure on it.

Avatar n tn Excuse me if this is not an appropriate place to post this question. I run. Both my calves are very tight but don't ever hurt. My right leg under the knee is swollen and leaves an imprint if I indent it with my thumb. Running injury? Vascular problem? Don't worry about it?
Avatar f tn Since starting classes again I have been having a lot of trouble with my knee. There is heat coming from it. It gets swollen, and red by the end of the day. At first it didn't hurt at all, it was just swollen. However; the last few weeks it has started to hurt, and I've gotten lightheaded a few times. Also there is this popping sound that happens if I rest it for awhile, then try to get up. My knee also itches to every now and then.
Avatar m tn I'm a 23 year old, healthy female, who has suffered intermittent leg cramps/knee pains for as long as I can remember. Strikes infrequently, but is intolerable and excruciating. I can remember being a young child and feel the pains, I described them as "growing pains," until I realized at the age of 20 that that was very unlikely. I pain manifests in both legs, often localizing at the knees. Activity worsens it.
Avatar n tn Are there lymph nodes on the back of the leg, behind the knee, where the leg creases? I'm asking, because it feels a little swollen on my left leg, but I can't really tell if it's swollen or if it's just like that when i stretch my leg out.
