Hello,

What I can infer from the complaints you have described is that you may be having episodes of a knee. Joint locking. It happens when there is an obstruction to smooth movements of knee joint f on any soft tissue structures in the knee like a meniscus. The best method to diagnose this is to get an MRI scan of the knee joint. It will tell your physician the cause of your knee problem.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Santosh S Jeevannavar
