Sharp Pain In Left Knee, Starts Up When Going To Bed. Taking Advil And Tylenol. Cause For Pain?

Hi Dr. Christensen .... I was reading about the man that was asking why his knee aches at night and was wondering if he found out why this was happening and if he overcame this. I m going through this now, again just at night when I go to bed, after a few minutes regardless of what position I m lying the sharp pain in my left knee (mostly on the inside) starts up. Ive been taking advil and at times tylenol , it helps for awhile but not always through the night. Thank You

DEAR SIR/MADAM

AGE PLAYS A MAJOR ROLE IN THE JOINT PAIN. IT MIGHT BE DUE TO LOT OF REASONS LIKE ARTHRITIS OR OSTEOPOROSIS, IT MIGHT ALSO BE LIGAMENT SPRAIN AND INJURIES. IT IS VERY ESSENSTIAL TO EVALUATE CAUSE FOR PAIN.

IT IS BETTER FOR YOU TO TAKE AN X RAY OF THE AFFECTED KNEE.
