Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I seemed to twist my knee when rising from the table nearly 3 weeks ago and although it isn t painful now,it is uncomfortable and feels tight. It changes position every day - sometimes at the inside of the knee and sometimes at the back.Now it seems very slightly swollen.Previously for a few months I have had locking in the knee when I have stooped down and put it down to wear and tear ( I used to work in greeting cards where we were always kneeling to do the racks ). I have tried to cope without visiting the doctor but it doesn t seem to be getting better.
This sounds more of the ligament injury. Doing an MRI scan will be of good choice to understand the grades of ligament Injury. Post this stabilizing the knee in a knee brace.
Hot water fermentation. Static Quadriceps and static hamstring exercise. Balance board training under a guided physiotherapist should give good results.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Jay Indravadan Patel, Physical Therapist or Physiotherapist
