as a physical therapist,i recommend u to have hotpacks for 15-20 mins on the affected area for pain relief..secondly do some joint mobilization exercise x 10 reps x 2 sets .And lastly you should use a single tip cane on the unaffected knee for the reason to reduce weight on the affected area..

Hi - well I have a lot of prior history on my knees - I had a ski accident 9 years ago that blew my knee out completely ligaments and meniscus.\n\nIf you are have knee problems go to your Doc and get a referal to a good knee surgeon - he will probably carry out an MRI scan to see what is inside.  Depending on that result he may want to scope you (arthroscopy) using fibre optics.\n\nIf you have meniscus problems the surgeon will probably have to trim it and remove any bits which have come lose or are catching in your knee.  This is not as bad as it sounds but can be painful for a while.\n\nIf you want to seek unofficial comments have a look at this website

Stop running. \nGet new running shoes. This to fix the angle your foot hits the ground and to provide cushioning. \nGet orthotics. This to fix the angle your foot hits the ground.  Get a knee brace or support strap. This to keep your patella in its track. Taping. This is where taping is used to get the patella back into its track. Stretch. Some doctors recommend knee drops to build up the muscles around the knee. Weights. This to strengthen the muscles around the kneecap so it tracks properly. Avoid bent knee exercises. Straight leg raises and posterior (hamstring or calf) muscle stretches are best.\nMassage. Icing. Take anti-inflamitories. Try Glucosamine Sulfate.  They say it helps with joint pain and arthritis.  Try ginger.  A tea made of fresh ginger taken 3 times a day is supposed to help reduce inflammation.  Prolotherapy. This is where they inject some gunk into your knee and hope your body will react and cure the cause of the pain. Acupuncture. This is where needles are used to stimulate the body to repair itself. Physiotherapy. This is where the muscles are manipulated to bring the patella back into its track. Arthroscopic surgery. This is where they cut a hole and take a look around at what's actually going on under the skin\nShaving the patella. This is where they get in and smooth the surface of the patella with a knife. Lateral release. This is where they get in and cut ligaments to shift the way the patella sits.

I had Arthoscopy surgery back in Nov. I had a chipped bone and also had arthritis clean up. My knee still bothers me at times, are you in an immobilizer or anything to keep your leg straight? Or on crutches? Its going to take time for it to heal, knees have a long healing process.

everything can be done in moderation and you can alternate your runs for shorter ones and then one really long one at some point in the week take care of the stress on the knee's though and if you find that you are getting a lot of injury take your running inside on a treadmill as that will ease the pressure on the knees and joints.\nOn the other hand walk does wonders too

well first off stop doing things to make it hurt, then u can always get a knee brace and take some pain pills  or just think of something or someone else to keep ur mind off of the pain

Go to physical therapy.  If just for one visit they can show you the proper exercises and what not to do to prevent the condition from worsening.

The best thing to do, since no one on the questionnaire thing here can actually see your knee, is to call you Dr. and try to go back and tell him about any concerns or problems. I think it would be unwise to accept any medical advise from any one except a qualified M. D. Oh and ask him about rehabilitative water therapy. Like water aerobics!  Its very low impact and highly recommended for people with your nature of injury! Good luck    Kareena

I'm a doctor, but not an orthopedist.  You should probably see an orthopedic specialist.  You could have any number of problems, from a strain/sprain to arthritis to torn ligaments.  Many knee problems can be treated with medication, special exercises or a brace, but some require injections or surgery.\n\nYou need to have a good exam by a doc to know for sure.  A week is long enough for a mild injury to start feeling better.\n\nGood luck.

I have also had knee surgery twice- once for ACL reconstruction, and the second for my menisicus. \n\nAlthough I wish there is an alternitive way to fix what damage has been done to your knee joint, I can't tell you anyway. \n\nAccepting a surgical procedure are your best chances.

Knee injury in sports takes a while to heal. Your friend may be out for the rest of the season. What's important now is for her to get well and resume her game. Patience is required, so is absolute adherence to instructions from who ever is treating her. I wish her well.

There is a condition called "water on the knee". It should get better with cold packs and rest
