Burning Sensations In Knees. Is It Due To Torn Ligaments?
I have been having burning sensations in my knees over the last few years. Since I ve had my daughter a year ago the pain/burning sensations seems to be more intense. I have thrown my left knee out 4 times since I have had my daughter and it caused me to go into shock. I was just wondering if the burning sensation I feel might be caused by torn ligaments or is it something else?
Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The burning sensation in the knee is more likely is related to a vitamin B 12 deficiency or electrolyte imbalance or a thyroid disorder. A ligament injury in the area is not likely. You can start with appropriate supplements and see if these improve.
