Hi and thanks for the query,
To be begin with, there is actually no connection between masturbation and knee pain. Knee problems as you describe might be mechanical of inflammatory. Depending on the duration of the pain, periodicity, intensity, associated factors, alleviating and aggravating factors. this could be important in making a diagnostic orientation.
Results of the Knee X rays, biological markers of inflammation, rheumatoid factor could give us some direction in knowing the nature of the pain. Coupled with clinical evaluation data, an exact diagnosis can be arrived at. Masturbation has nothing to do with this pain, and I suggest you consult your family care physician for follow up.
Thanks and best regards,
Luchuo, MD.
