Possible knee damage?
« on: February 17, 2009, 10:59:50 PM »
Hey everybody,

Recently my knee has been hurting horribly, especialy when I walk on stairs or run. It hurts really bad right below the knee. Does anyone know what the issue may be? There are some smart people here, so thought that I woud ask here first ;)

Take some ibuprofen and lay off of the knee for a day or two and you'll be fine  :yes:

Have you had your doctor check your knee? If you haven't you should.  :yes:

It's the only way in order to prevent any future damage to your knee as it worsens.
He'd probably give you an x-ray on your knee. That's good that you're going to the doctor's this week.

I'll try to this week. This may have been the 18th time in about five months this happened, so I finally said screw it, and am jumping to possible conclusions...

If you ever have joint pain for more than a few days you should really see a doctor. It it was something serious you could have really worsened the injury.

There are ligaments and tendons in the knee which may have been injured. You should definitely have the knee looked at. It could need surgical repair.

Well, I've got a schedualed date for the doctor in March. again, the pain is on and off, so I wil be fine if nothing big happens (Eg. I get kicked there, run to much, or climb on enclined surfaces). I jsut need to lay off of the leg as much as possible.

It could be that you initially injured your leg, and every time you feel pain its the original injury being aggravated. Its a good thing you have an appointment with the doctor. Its definitely something that should be checked out.  :yes:
