Suggest Treatment For Knee Pain Cause After Exercising
Hi, I have a severe pain in my left knee which started after doing lacrosse goalie workouts. I believe it s because I spent an hour exploding onto either leg, depending on where the shot was, but my right knee feels fine. It does affect the way I walk and almost feels like there is something inside my knee. What could this be and what should I do besides ice it?

hi,
thank-you for providing the brief history of you.
A thorough neuromuscular assessment is advised.
As mentioned in history about the workout you did, a thorough assessment in the torque of the muscle needs to be known. Also, the hip muscle Strengthening is of due importance to control the knee in position. Getting a clinical Musculoskeletal assessment by a sport ortho will be of help. Usually, pains and aches are sometimes relates to DOMS and subsided in a day or two. But if you feel there is some grinding of the knee than an MRI will be suggested based on the clinical assessment post which the rehabilitation plan will be prepared.
In sports injuries the role of the sports physical therapist is of due importance to understand the mechanism of the injury and the mechanism of the role a joint is going to undergo during the workout as well as the game.
In my clinical practice, with thorough musculoskeletal assessment patients are guided with a different sort of exercises as to cover up the highly torqued muscle and provide the stability between them to get the maximum score.
