I
have been experiencing a persistent cracking sound in my knees whenever I bend them deeply or sit with my legs crossed, and this issue has gradually become more noticeable over time. Recently I also noticed similar sounds beginning in my shoulder, which has made me more concerned about what might be causing these sensations. Although the cracking is not always accompanied by pain, there are moments when my knees feel uncomfortable and even slightly painful after repeated movement or extended periods of sitting or standing, which affects my daily routine and makes me more cautious about my movements overall.
My mother is facing issues while walking. She sometimes loses balance while walking. And have pain in legs as well. What could be the reason for this and any medication for this ?
I have a fibula head fracture in Right Knee. The doctor advised not to do plaster and advised to use hinged braces. Would it heal without plaster?
I am a 35 year old woman from Bangalore (5 Feet 6 Inch Height, 74 Kg Weight). I was having knee pain for maybe close to 18 months. The pain was not constant, kind of intermittent. I actually wear heels 4-5 days a week, heels with 3-4 inch heel. I got MRI done of both knees post doctor's advise. Key findings: Right Knee-“Grade I horizontal tear of posterior horn of medial meniscus. Left Knee-Grade I horizontal tear of posterior horn of medial and lateral menisci. Reviewing the MRI reports, my doctor advised me to start physiotherapy focused on Quadriceps & VMO strengthening exercises. I have begun the exercises, and it has been about 2 weeks so far. The pain is there, sometimes more. Wanted opinion on: 1. How long does it typically take for this condition to improve and for the pain to go away? 2. Is it fully curable? 3. Will I be able to wear high heels (3–4 inches) occasionally in future, perhaps 3–4 days a week for about 2–3 hours a day? Please guide the best. Thank you
