What Causes Pain In The Right Knee?
Hi. I m Jason. Had a bit of difficulty with my right knee this morning. It was kinda achey. Pain and aches have spread below my knee and up into my hip. Hurts when I put my weight on it. While sitting, it throbs. While standing, it throbs and shoots. I just found out my insurance has lapsed, so now I m trying to figure this out on my own. Well, now with your help.

Hello,
Your symptoms seem to be related to gonoarthrosis.
Some examination that should be done are:
-An X-ray
-A rheumatoid blood factor
Some advice that I can give to you are:
-use cool or heat compresses for relief
-use anti inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen three times a day
-If you do not get better you should take prescribed corticosteroids.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi,
