8744108 tn?1411750437 To have pain in my knee when I walk?? It goes back and forth between the two. Also pain in my left but cheek? Haha. I am 25 weeks.
1400304 tn?1280733090 I know some hairdressers/barbers that have a cushiony mat that they stand on behind their barber chair so that it absorbs some of the pressure on your legs. You could try taking acetaminophen or ibuprofen for the pain and if it is really bothersome, you might want to see you doctor if none of these ideas work. Good luck.
Avatar m tn I was putting in padded flooring in my home gym for about 4 hours. Since then I've had pain in my right knee only when kneeling on my right knee (like when tying shoes). It's to the side of the knee and feels like something is being stretched laterally at first, before I get a sharp pain that feels like it's stinging/tingly. It is not completely on the side of my knee, but in the softer area to the side of my knee cap.
1961313 tn?1326290364 Thank you for the info-this helps me very much-the pain is not in the knee ,it's only when I have to bend down on my knee,(putting all the pressure on my knee is when the pains starts) I've looked to see if there is anything pushing out from the knee but I can't see anything.the pain is to the rt side of the knee extending down the leg on the rt side of the shin bone- it feel just like the skin is splitting open,of course I do have fibromyalgia,could be a symptom of that as well?

7527173 tn?1395366780 I'm 23weeks 6days. When I sleep on my side for a while my leg that I'm sleeping on gets extremely numb and hurts extremely bad so I have to turn over to my other side. So I toss and turn all night on each leg. I've never experienced that before and this is my 3rd child. Is that normal? Does it mean anything? Anyone experience this before??
Avatar m tn So i agree with you so much that the rod may be pushing pressure on my knee when walking. I cant really think of any other reason for the pain as i only get it when i weight bear. A lot of other people from forums have also said this could be the problem. Thank you so much for your response. All the doctors that i have seen on the NHS have been terrible.
Avatar f tn During the surgery they placed 2 Endor rods going down the middle of my Tibia from knee to ankle. Now that I am making attempts at walking I am having grinding pain and a lot of pain around my knee. My Drs x-rays showed the rod had moved out and that is what I was feeling. He said they can come out now and with minor surgery. My question to anyone, is it to soon to remove the rods? Also, will I be back on crutches for some time? I would appreciate any feedback.
Avatar m tn Wanted to know what all the above means and how bad could be the condition of my knee as it has starting very bad from the last 3 days. Due to this I am putting more pressure on left knee and that too pains.
Avatar m tn What im asking is when I Lay on my Tummy or on my Back and I Push Deep and Hard on the Middle of my Tummy around the Area of where my belly button is I get really bad pains meaning it hurts to push in the areas I push, Also around the bottom of my Sternum also when I push down it feels hard aswell :/ What could be the matter?
Avatar n tn I believe the pain is from jogging and putting too much pressure on my leg in general. It hurts mostly when I walk or put pressure on it. Resting my leg and taking naproxen and ibprofen to reduce inflammation does not seem to be healing it. Is it possible that this injury will require surgery? What should I do?
Avatar m tn It has had extensive physical tests and on the third day in i hurt my knee. The pain was sharp and intense the day i hurt it on the outside of my knee. My knee never buckled or twisted or popped to indicate something bad happened. I was just walking up stairs after a short jog about 100m and my knee began to lock up and have intense pain that day. I fought through the pain that day and made it to the next day of training.
Avatar f tn Maybe spring for one of those inflatable donut pillows to sit on if it helps relieve some of the pressure. Changing positions frequently can help too. If you’ve been sitting for a few hours, get up. If you’ve been on your feet, sit for a while. Gentle stretching can also help. When you feel discomfort, sit in a chair and cross one ankle over your knee. Bend forward at the waist slightly. That simple move will stretch and open up the pelvis and alleviate some of the discomfort you’re feeling.
Avatar m tn The pain and uncomfort forced me to see a doctor who advised that I strained the calve muscle and had to use crutches. When I stand on the leg, it seems to swell slightly and the veins stands out and swells, particularly below the knee on the front inside of the calve and once I take the pressure off the leg and relax it the vein swelling subsides. The leg at the knee is still quite stiff and the pain has subsided only slightly.
1308443 tn?1302693321 My foot rolled in putting pressure on my knees. I get trouble for not standing correctly at karate but yelling at me doesn't help. I had 3 people holding my leg and foot perfectly aligned and as soon as I stepped off the stair it broke their grip. Eventually the therapist gave up on me.
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 * I cannot pin-point what exactly triggers the joint pain. For example, putting weight on the knee or twisting it from side-to-side does not trigger the pain. I poke and push on it but cannot reproduce the pain. * The joint pain does not follow a specific headache -- my headache is a constant pressure in my head, and it pretty much always there. * The knee itself does not seem swollen, or have any indications of redness. It is only my right knee, left one is fine.
Avatar f tn m 37 weeks and this helps take the pressure off my hips when I lie on my side. I do still have to change sides every few hours because if I stay on one side to long I still get pain.
942127 tn?1276949209 thanks, I figured that was what was causing the pain, but wasn't sure. I am still on anti-inflammatory drugs from when I first hurt my knee. I have an appointment Wednesday for it, so I suppose I can have him look at my foot as well. Back to the crutches I guess.
Avatar f tn So wedesnday i had a sparring session and i took a low backround house to the side of my knee when my foot was planted on the floor and it caused my knee to jerk to the side (no pop or anything just a jerk). It didnt hurt, nor do i feel pain now but it seems to be swollen a little, and just feels weird. The next day is when i noticed the slight swell actually and i can bend down with no problem *** to the floor and after i guess you can say my warm up i felt nothing during practice.
Avatar f tn Hi Doctor, I've got a question about pain on the right side of my knee. I'm a runner - nothing heavy, about 20 miles per week. Lately I've been having pain on the right side of my right knee - but only when its bent and I'm applying pressure outward. For example - when I'm sitting cross-legged and I put my elbow on my knee and press it to the ground, I have pain. It's not there otherwise. It's been about 3 weeks now - any idea what might cause it?
Avatar n tn The pain often begins in my knee as a dull ache that can be temporarily alleviated by putting pressure on the patellar tendon, but then will radiate into either my hip or ankle. NSAID's seem to help sometimes. However, today I woke up with excruciating pain in my quad. It is not a cramp because there are no knots on palpation and stretching does not help.
1773330 tn?1314171331 i ve been running on threadmill for 2 weeks..i ve got a knee pain...any solution to decrease the pain?
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 My leg got sore and I have been walking tenderly on it for two days now. It seems to be better when I stay off of it, but I had to get out to take care of some business today and after walking on it for an hour or so, my entire lower leg swelled quite a bit. My ankle had even swelled where it almost looked like a tennis ball down there. It aches and throbs a bit and because of the swelling. I can't fully extend my knee or bend it fully.
Avatar f tn t really hurt but it has a big bruise and I get a pinching feeling when I bend my knee too much (eg when climbing down long flights of stairs and when putting my shoes on). Is it safe to assume there's nothing wrong and all it needs is time?
