Having Burning Sensation On The Side Of My Left Knee. Knees Popping When Standing. Treatment?
Hello Dr.
I am 29 years old and having a burning sensation on the side of my left knee. I also have a problem with both of my knees popping when I stand up with pain. I played golf in college and still continue to play and it seems to hurt more after I play. Do u have any suggestions? Thanks Jonathan Carroll YYYY@YYYY
When you say the side of your left knee, I take it you mean the outside. In this case, it sounds like you have tendinitis, specifically, illiotibial band syndrome. This happens when the illiotibial band becomes too tight. It can be released manually by most chiropractors, physical therapists and personal trainers. As far as the popping in your knees is concerned, it could be due to a slot of things. More information would be beneficial. As in, does it click, grind or actually pop? If the joins in your knees are not moving like they should, it can cause pain.
Yours in health,
Dr. Ezell
