What Causes Pain On Knee While Standing Or Sitting With Itching?

I had knee replacement one yr ago, I stepped out of doorway at angle to shut a door, got a sharp pain to knee. Now can t put weight and stand up or sit down, but yet I can walk. Now have a soft medium itchy to rub knot behind left calf. Can this wait until Monday until I see my MD?

Hi
Welcome to healthcaremagic
I have gone through your query and understand your concern.You can very well wait for Monday. It is not emergency situation unless you have fever. You are likely to be benefitted by rest and analgesic such as ibuprofen for pain relief. Quadriceps exercises are of help. You can discuss with your doctor about it. Hope your query get answered. If you have any clarification then don't hesitate to write to us. I will be happy to help you.
