Arthritis Or Displaced Knee Posted: 07-04-05 07:23am
Hope someone can help
i am 24 and always suffered with pain in
my right knee, it always was worse when it
was cold and damp and eased in summer. I
put it down to a bit of arthritis but
never worried about it.
A couple of moths ago I started going to
gym and after 2 weeks my left knee started
getting painful. I put up with this for
a few more weeks and then went to my gp.
He told me I had a displaced knee and
wanrd me that the treadmill and rower may
aggrevate it. So I avoided these. He
told me that needed to strengthen my
tendons up and said swimming would help.
I have been going swimming 3- 4 times a
week for the last 3 weeks and still there
is no relief.
Somone please advise as I can't even lower
myself up and down from a chair or the
toilet. It is really getting me down
now, I have tried pain killers and
anti-inflammatories but with no respite
