Hi,

Present pain may not be necessarily related to injury 25 years back. Some new ligament strain might have occurred.

kindly discuss with your orthopedician as karate or gym workouts may worsen the situation further if left untreated.

Also discuss the same with your instructors, as this may need some modification in training. Paracetamol can help for temporary pain relief.

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

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Muhammed Aslam TK
