Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi Doctor, I am having a pain at my right knee since 15 days almost. It was little at starting but now it is difficult to walk properly specially on the stairs and when I am trying to walk speedily. About six or seven month ago I was obstructed at the angle of the office table. Then it was not troubled. I don t know it was for that reason or not. I am 43 years old. 5 4 height, body weight 60 kg. Please help.
are you having any fevers? Or any other symptoms? such as tiredness, Weakness?
whenever you have a problem with a single joint, you always suspect infection in this joint, which will show up with the above symptoms together with pain, redness, swelling of this joint. which is more likely if your joint was previously injured, possibly sometime earlier in life or if you have arthritis.
other possible causes May include pseudogout, which is a crystal induced arthropathy, or physical injury to the joint.
I suggest you go to visit your doctor and have it checked out, just to be on the safe side. He will likely do some physical exams/tests, and depending on the result, provide you with the best treatment you need.
