What Causes Pain And Burning Sensation On The Left Knee?
Hi. For the past four weeks my left knee has been getting worse and worse. I touch it, it feels like it s on fire. It sometimes clicks and is painful to walk on. I ve also developed pain in my hip joints. If I turn my right foot slightly to the right, my hip socket hurts. If I lay on my left side, my hip hurts in back on the right.

Hello
Thank you for trusting HCM
Your symptoms are suggestive of arthritis. Xray of the affected joint is recommended at this point. Please be advised to follow up with your primary provider for necessary evaluation. Meanwhile, you can take Advil 600 mg 4 timed daily to reduce pain and inflammation.
Hope this answers your question
Please let me know if you need further clarifications
