I have been suffering knee problems in my right knee for a couple months now and i dont think its getting better. I have been having spasms in the knee as well as a lot of sharp pain and collapsing occasionally. Can you help to figure out what the problem is? Thanks

Hi,
The cause of knee pain can be multi-factorial, ranging from simple weakness to arthritis or ligamentous instability. You need to have a thorough clinical examination and based on it appropriate clinical investigations like X-ray or MRI to reach a diagnosis.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
