Hi my name is Alex and I am experiencing intense pain just below my right knee cap. When I stand and put pressure on it the pain is so intense I cannot walk properly, it seems to have gotten worse over the last few days could you tell me what might be causing this?

Hello,
I have studied your case and I think you are having pre patellar bursitis. I would suggest you to follow these steps.
1.Hot water fomentation.
2.tablet Brufen 400 mg twice daily.
3.If these methods are not successful then you can get needle aspiration. And steroid injection can be given in the bursa.
I hope these steps will be helpful for you.Let me know if there is any other followup questions.
thanks
