1587585 tn?1309432260 If you hurt your knee doing side lunges, this may be a meniscal injury or to the MCL. Pain in the back of the knee may be local inflammation, or swelling. Continue the NSAID's, rest, and ice; if the pain persists, see an orthopedist.
Avatar f tn I am no way medically minded but I am investigating an issue for my son he was admitted to hospital and was diagnosed as having tonsillitis the hospital were not told that my son had been assaulted and thrust into a parked vehicle I want to know and have advice on whether your tonsils become inflamed due to an impact injury to the mid torso area with some possible internal organ damage maybe to the spleen this also resulting in high fever lasting several days

Avatar m tn I had two separate impacts (one from a motorcycle and one from playing rugby) to bony areas. The motorcycle impact was on the top of the tibia just below the kneecap. The second impact was to my rib while playing rugby. Neither was broken (the rib sure felt broken, but the x-ray indicated otherwise) but a small growth of about 1" in diameter and .25" - .5" high has grown on each area. They are also fairly painful to pressure.
Avatar m tn Hi, about 3 months ago i think i overextended my knee while dribbling the ball in a game of basketball. Its not that much of an injury, there was no pop or swelling. I was even able to continue the game. There was pain when it happened, but it quickly subsided. I was able to walk and put weight on it. I played basketball sporadically for the following months and it did not bother me. Last week I decided to go back to running after a long hiatus.

Avatar m tn I was sent on Meloxicam and low impact for 3 weeks, but I am still having my knee, fingers etc bothering me. I dont know if my mind is so powerful that it can dictate the pain in my joints. I really hope that the knee issue is due to limping and overexerting the knee, and that the joint pain is due to the anxiety that this situation has caused. I feel great in my overall health except from this. And when I dont think about it, say while talking to a friend, I feel NOTHING at all.
Avatar m tn In high school i was in both cross country and track. I enjoyed them equally. I was given pavement, woodchips, grass, and or sand when it came to cross country trails and for track, we were given the plan and simple track mesh. As i mentioned, my knee has had reoccurring pain and complications but never to this extent. After graduated, i would have to say that i have been running more on roads than anything else. I'm sure that this has taken a negative impact on my knee.
Avatar m tn I was in a martial arts class and sustained a contusion to my outer thigh, approx. 5 inches above my knee. The trama was severe enough that I could not stand for several minutes and then could only, barely, limp around. For the first several days, only the point of impact was painful. After about a week, the pain started spreading across both my anterior and posterior thigh muscles.
Avatar m tn Hello, I'm looking for advice and insight into whether or not I should progress with a meniscal allograft transplant surgery to my left knee. I'm a 28 year old male and played competitive soccer continuously for 20 years until I tore my ACL. After the injury, I had an MRI and was told I had fully ruptured my ACL and also damaged the meniscus and had a deep lateral femoral bone bruise.
Avatar m tn Would this information impact your diagnosis? I only play once or twice per week so I do give the knee lots of rest. In any event, if you have more to offer on this subject, I look forward to hearing from you. I will certainly be taking your advice and asking my personal doctor to take a look at it. Thanks again!
Avatar f tn I twisted my knee and when it happen I heard and felt a pop on the inside of my knee. Also, now when I walk, I have pain and crackling on the outside, under the knee. When I am walking and I have to turn or piviot, I get a pain that runs the inside of my knee. And now I can just be standing there and my knee feels like it is really loose and feels like I hyperextended in, the knee pushes back. How ling should I wait to go to the doctor or should I continue to try and heal it myself.
Avatar n tn Hi! I'm sorry to hear about your knee. It sounds to me like either a ligament or possibly cartilage. Does it feel unstable or is it still giving out on you? Does it ache after sitting for long amounts of time? Is your pain off to the side of the knee or under your knee cap? These answers may help me know better.
Avatar f tn You need to know I have arthritis in both knees and no cartilage left under knee caps. My knee instantly was hurting but mostly when trying to walk normal. I can walk stiff legged and it doesn't hurt too bad but flex the knee and it has sharp pain like i have walking up and down stairs because of the knee caps. I sit in a normal position but lifting foot causing lots of pain around knee cap. I'm guessing I probably pulled something. Have put ice on it and taken ibu.

Avatar f tn Were you walking, tripped, and fell directly on the knee cap? Or did you land awkwardly causing your knee to take the brunt of the fall in an awkward position?
Avatar m tn I was playing volleyball and jumped and landed on my knee, the first few days my knee hurt too bad to walk on. It has been about a month now and I can walk with no problem but if I turn or back up or go down or up hills it still hurts sometimes. It also feels like something is moving when I turn sometime .Could this be serious? Should I see a doctor?
Avatar f tn Unfortunately, it is imposible to make a diagnosis from this simple description. If your pain is persistant, and does not respond to a short period of rest or activity modification, then I would suggest evaluation by an orthopedist. At that time, your doctor will take a thorough history, examine your knee and entire lower extremity, and use xrays and MRI if necessary, to formulate a diagnosis. After a dianosis is reached, then a treatment plan that makes sense for you canbe instituted.
Avatar m tn From there hopefully your doctor can perform tests to find out if there is tissue damage, or what the exact injury is. Until then, I highly suggest you stay off of your knee as much as you can, i.e. no running. You can try ice, or heat, whichever feels better. I would be careful when stretching as well in case you aggravate your knee. Good luck and I hope your knee feels better soon!
