Dull knee pain

2018-03-10 17:30:39
I am having slight pain in knee since 4 months. It started in winter. Same thing happened last year too. It is in right knee and my right knee also makes cracking sound with slight pain. Pain is very dull but it is there and not resolving by itself. In the past, I have injured my knee while running. But, lately it is bothering me as the dull pain is not getting over on it's own. I am 30 years old. 78 kg weight and 5 feet 8 inches height. Any suggestion would be helpful.

• Sports Taping- stretch the tape from both ends and apply on the affected area • Contrast Fomentation (Hot and Cold). • Contrast bath---It is a form of treatment in which knee is applied warm water followed by the immediate application of the knee with ice water. This procedure is repeated several times, alternating hot and cold. Note that the treatment should always end in the ice water, as heat will induce the body's inflammatory response, while cold helps to decrease inflammation.
