How To Treat Pain In Knee Radiating Into Shin Caused After Injury?
I fell on my knee cap back in June--It hurts to bend and to touch. I can t kneel on it without causing radiating pain down my shin. After I walk for long periods it will swell and will throb and will hurt when sheets touch it. I have been icing it but still very sore.
It is necessary consulting with an orthopedist for a physical exam and a knee joint X-ray study. Knee MRI would be a better test to examine the knee joint.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
