What Do You Suggest For Knee Pain After The Pain In My Hamstring?

Last Saturday I was playing ball and I had a pain in my hamstring. After getting up and moving I continued to play and then felt a pop behind my knee and a sharp pain OT the edge of my buttocks. I did have swelling and I have bruising behind my knee. I did have an cal revision last February 2012. Should I be nervous that I did something to my knee or is it a hamstring pull?

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello dear,

The symptoms as mentioned in your post can be attributed to musculo-skeletal injury.
X ray of the knee joint can be done to rule out any pathological cause for the symptoms.

Symptomatic relief can be obtained by application of ice, analgesic & muscle relaxant gel, intake of analgesics like Diclofenac (to be taken after food) + Pantoprazole (to be taken 30 minutes before meals).
Supplements of Calcium & Vitamin D can be included in diet which will help in strengthening of bones.
Physiotherapy exercise will also be helpful.

There is no need to worry, you will be fine.
Till then, maintain adequate hydration & nutrition status, take proper rest and avoid stress.
Wishing a Good Health.
Take care.
