Subject: pain when bending knee
|
Hello,
I need some advice. Mom (57) is not a runner, but she is on her foot
a lot and recently developed a problem in her left knee. Knee is
swollen
above cap and in the side (anterior). She feels pain, stiffness and
some
tightness when bending her knee. She is able to walk but feels pain
when bending and stretching.
The back of her knee does not hurt, but the front of the knee hurts and
so does the anterior side (side facing the other leg).
I posted here since I saw other posters with knee issues.
Please advice if you have experience w/ these symptoms and
can offer any advice on treatments. She is currently taking arnica
montana (has no insurance), but w/ no improvement seen.
THANKS

Your description of Mom's problem is mind numbingly boring.
Are you sure it isn't a running injury?

Is your mom a runner? If she's a runner, thats one thing. Is it just
pain in her knee from an accident or an injury? If it's not related to
running, the best you can do is so ibuprofen and ice.
If it's running related you can alter her technique in some ways to
help alleviate the pain she gets. Hope she's alright.

Other than rest and ice and maybe a little ibuprofen to relieve the
pain, I'd say the smartest thing to do would be to see a dor. Of
all the joints in the body, the knee is the one that takes the greatest
beating.

No, she is not a runner and it's not injury either. She was on
her foot a lot doing gardening, etc. Lately, the swelling has
diminished and mostly she feels pain/stiffness when walking
up and down the stairs.

Shouldn't the poster be getting advice from a gardening group then?
It makes as much sense as asking joggers for opinions.
