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.
What Causes Discomfort And Pain In The Right Knee?
Hello, I have had discomfort, a dull pain per say in my right knee, especially towards the posterior part of my knee. I have recently took a hit to the same knee and it seems to be bothering me even more now. I am trying to figure out what it could be?
You are having a history of trauma over the knee joint. It can be considered as musculoskeletal pain for which non-steroid anti-inflammatory drug can be prescribed. If no improvement than knee joint digital X-ray should be done for further work up. It can be ligament or menisci injury also.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Parth Goswami,
General & Family Physician
