Sharp ripping knee pain - have you had it & what did it turn out to be?


Question:
I get a sharp hot rip feel on my knee cap after I stand back up from bending down at the knee. Some days it just aches and is real tight feeling when I bend it. If you have had knee issues and seen the doc... just trying to see what it is before I go. Did you have to have any fluid removal by needle?

Answers:
Joint pain or stiffness of the joint may be caused by overexertion, injuries, arthritis, muscle pain,bursitis and other diseases. Depending on the cause of the joint pain, joints on both sides of the body and small or large joints may be affected. Some types of joint pains can be completely cured but for other types of joint pain (like pain caused by osteoarthritis), treatment will only reduce the pain.

Most likely, you're fine. But by all means, if you're concerned then get it checked out. Just keep your immune system up and running smoothly, and it will probably go away. Maybe you just hurt yourself somehow, and it could be a possible spasm. I say: Drink some herbal tea, and take it easy for a few days. See a doctor if it gets worse within maybe a week.
