Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am concerned about my knees... I just started adding squats to my exercise and i notice that everytime i squat down there is screeching noise on my knees. You hear it more on my left knee. It doesn't hurt to squat nor do they bother me but that noise concerns me. What can it be?
As per your history there is possibility of soft tissue injury in knee. Most commonly meniscus injury occurs. And MRI may miss meniscus tear,diagnostic arthroscopy can help and cure the problem.
As per your symptoms you need to do physiotherapy and knee exercises to improve range of motion .
Small meniscus tear can be managed conservatively with physiotherapy with USG andTENS.
Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.
