What Causes Severe Pain In My Knee?
My left knee is really painful and keeps giving out. Doctor took X-rays said he did not see any structural damage. Have been doing physical therapy for surgery on my right foot I had done in the end of January. It hurts on the lateral and inside of my knee and right up the middle when I stand up. Do you have any suggestions to help it or a idea what might be wrong as it keeps getting worse and more painful?

hi,
as you mentioned, you have taken x-ray and nothing seems to be in specific. Well why don't you Just get one MRI done. It will help to see some soft tissue Injuries present.
in the mean time as mentioned, you are undergoing physical therapy for foot post operatively.
well, how about you doing some exercises for the left leg as a while.
since you have an operation done on the right foot, there is always a tendency to apply more weight on the other side of the body. So it will lead to pain which can be temporary.
As the strength improves in both it the lower limbs I am sure you will find ease of your left side.
with the grace of God I wish you a speedy recovery
