Any Suggestion For Knee Pain?

Knee pain
Every day my left knee hurts right from the front of my knee all the way from the top to the bottom. I am overweight but no other joint in my body hurts except my knee. I have not had any injuries to my knee. I wear an elastic brace on my knee every day. I have it lifted and it feels better. but when I walk a lot it hurts.

Hello,

When did it start? You said that you can’t walk a lot because it hurts. Does the pain radiate if it is located only in the knee? Do you have other signs? What is the characteristic of the knee? What makes it worse or better? Do you feel stiffness in the knee? Does rest make it better? How old are you? May be the cartilage of your knee its damaged by the age? How old are you? Better visit an orthoped and you can do an x-ray of the knee or an MRI, but first visit an orthoped.

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

Regards,
Dr. Emilda Belortaja
