Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
How To Reduce Pain That Radiates From Hip To Knee?
I slipped on the tile floor and fell kneeling down on my left knee. I have a goose egg right under the knee. I can bend it but the pain is terrible when I do bend it. I also have pain in my left hip when I sit that radiates down toward the knee. I have taken advil and iced down the knee. What else can I do for relief?
Having some rest and avoiding walking is necessary in the next days. If the pain persists, I would recommend consulting with an orthopedist and performing an X-ray study of the hip joint and the knee. A knee MRI may be needed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
