What Causes Pain In Knees?
Hi, tonight while I was working out I randomly got a pain in my right knee on the outer side of my knee cap to the top of it. It hurts to walk and stand and it gets tingly at times. I also have this random feeling like a water balloon has popped in my knee and there is water. (that s the best way to describe it)

hi
this is Dr sanghvi ,welcome to hcm
I would require to know your age assuming your age being between 20 to 50yrs
the reason fir your knee pain could be tendon pull/tear caused during workout
but the feel of balloon could be due to gushing out of synovial linning along with fluid from the knee capsule
would advise you to take rest ,ice fomentationavoid pressure on the knee and stop your workout for 2 weeks
you can also wear knee caps so as to restrict the sac formation
you can take enzoflam twice daily along with omez for pain
for a week
hope this helps
thank you
