What Causes Persistent Mild Pain In The Lower Back And Right Knee?

Hello, I am having some discomfort in my lower back and knees. There is always a dull ache but some days the pain is a lot worse. Its my lower back and my right knee. It always feels weaker when walking for too long and gives way of I try and do exercise. Now my other knee has become sore. Most days I can feel my right knee pulsing. It s a very odd sensation. It usually finishes within 2 minutes. Do you think there is anything seriously wrong or am I just overreacting?

Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

You have got low back and right knee strain. This occurs due to prolonged sitting or doing work in a bad posture. Although you have not mentioned your age and type of work you do.

I would suggest you to start with mild stretching exercises for your lower limb and back. This can be done with consultation of a physiotherapist.

It will be also beneficial if you take care of your posture and to avoid sitting for a prolonged time in one posture.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Santosh S Jeevannavar
