Edema on knee

2019-03-19 01:02:45
While playing football 6 yrs ago I collided with one of the players on the opposite team hardly on my left knee. After that I felt some pain on my knee and went to the doctor. The doctor took some edema out from the knee using a syringe. Afterwards the pain was gone after 2-3 days. Then I started playing normally and there was no issue. Now 2-3 months before while playing I suddenly twisted my knee and the same pain has come back. So is there any permanent solution for it? I mean I didn't twist my knee that much just a little but I felt the pain on my knee. Now that I can't play football like normal. While walking and all its normal but while applying some pressure on that area, I can feel that pain. Even I did an MRI and consulted a doctor nearby. What he said was there was no major issue just a small part of my knee is filled with edema and also suggested me to do physiotherapy. So is there any other way to get rid of the pain?

Sometimes small meniscal tears and osteochondral defects are not seen or do not appear due to artefacts. These things can take some time to settle down but if your pain is intolerable then you have to meet a knee surgeon and if diagnostic arthroscopy is necessary he will do it.nothing is better than looking with naked eyes with a scope
