What Causes Pain In The Knees?
Hey doc my knee has been hurting since last summer after I fell off my longboard but the problem is that my pain comes back once in awhile, when i m doing sports or when I sit. I had my knee checked by my athletic trainer and she said I had nothing, but when I have my knee bent and then later on tried to move my leg, I got sharp pain. Can you tell me what I have? Thank you for your time.

Hello,
Knee pain may be as a result of stress/strain from your sporting activities. After a fall last summer, you might have sustained a minor injury to the known elements. If pain, you may try a pain drug like Tylenol and a local pain gel like Voltaren for local application. If pain persists, you see the doctor for examination and other treatment options.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Nirav Nimavat
