Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Is The Discomfort In My Right Knee When I Walk On It?
I have great discomfort in my right heel/ankle when i walk on it. just sitting there is no pain. The pain is the worst when i first get out of bed in the morning or if i have been of it for an hour or so. it settles after i walk 10-20 steps but is still causing me to walk with a limp.
Dear There are various causes for knee pain. It is better to get it investigated so that exact reason can be treated and cured. In majority of the cases it can be due to arthritic changes, overweight and some sort of infection can also be the cause of pain. The mode you are explaining as more on getting up and then when you start walking it settles down is usually cured with local fomentation and application of some analgesic ointment or medicated oil. In ayurveda we apply vish garbh oil or maha narayan oil or Dazzle ointment. Use of knee cap also helps to reduce pain.
