Guest guest Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 You sound very normal to me....Everyone recovers at a differnet pace and at 2 weeks you are still going to hurt...Take your pain meds and do your exercises...When I sit too long, my knees get very stiff and painful, even now , 4 months out...so try not to sit too long.... I did feel a rubbing at times, but that has gotten better too... I did wake up at night hurting ....it was a long time before I slept thru the night, but that will get better ....Take a sleeping pill if you have any or ask your doctor for a Rx..... Try to be patient, it takes a long time to heal......it will get better! Marguerite On Dec 28, 2007 8:17 PM, J.

Guest guest Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 Thanks Marguerite, I guess I may be rushing it. We would all like to say " POOF " and everything be better. I know so little about this and I am sure I ask to many questions. I go Wednesday to see my Dr. and he should be able to tell how I am doing.

Guest guest Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 Hi Carolyn, No, I don't believe I've ever been tested for rheumatoid arthritis, but I guess that's something I need to bring up when I can find a dr. Hopefully I can start looking again after Monday's holiday, it's been hard to get in to even see my regular drs.! Thanks for the idea. Sincerely, Jeannie knee pain Considering the fact that weight loss did NOT help, and with the other symptoms you described, it just sounds to me more like a rheumetoid kind of thing. Have you been tested for rheumetoid arthritis?

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2009 Report Share Posted January 7, 2009 To Welynda, This would be a good time to have both your knees evaluated by an orthopaedic surgeon. Do not waste your time on a GP or RD. They will either get xrays or xrays and an MRI. Once they get the results they still will not know how to treat you. If you live in the U.S.. and do not have an ortho doctor you trust go to www.AAHKS.org and use the physician locater to find one near you. Remember you are not obligated to have surgery if you see a surgeon. All good treatment surgical or non-surgical begins with a correct diagnosis. I apologize for not posting lately. So much has happened. After 30 non- stop years of work, I retired on Dec. 19th secondary to my ongoing Stills. A week ago I had my right (dominant arm) shoulder re-constructed secondary to a paralyzed muscle another Stills problem. As you can probably guess my typing is really slow. The surgeon says my final result will give back some of my previous function but it will take at least a year for a near final result. In March I will start school to earn a masters degree in adult education. I really hope by then I can type faster. Try to have a pain-free day everyone, Hary S.

I have a creaky, generally painful and slow to get moving knee, which i can live with for a few more years, but I also have a small painful area on the inside of my knee that hurts like a bad toothache when I sit in the wrong position. I asked if this could be my extra bone growth pushing on a nerve (it feels like nerve pain to me) but was told no if it was a nerve i would get loss of sensation in my lower leg.

Guest guest Posted December 27, 2010 Report Share Posted December 27, 2010 Hi Bee, I have another question. I've always had bad knees but lately my right knee has been hurting really bad. I believe it's inflammation being it mainly is a burning/throbbing feeling. It's more of a sharp pain than a dull one also. I'm not sure if it's just inflamed or toxins or what. Should I go to the doctor and get xrays? Should I take white willow bark to see if that helps the inflammation? Any advice would be great. Thanks again!

Guest guest Posted December 29, 2010 Report Share Posted December 29, 2010 > Hi Bee, > This is Judy V. again. It has been 2 and a half months since I broke my leg and badly twisted my body. I had many x-rays, each time that I visited the 'bone doc'. After the first two visits, I was wondering why he would have (at least three) x-rays, even though I was healing well, and the bone was setting okay (Could this be why my ankle and elbow still hurt?). +++Hi Judy. Yes, that why you ankle and elbow still hurt since your body now has to detoxify the radiation from the x-rays. Ensure you are taking the correct doses of niacin (B3), along with B complex. Niacin helps your body get rid of radiation and that is mainly why people get a flush, itch, and some people even get rashes at the site of x-rays when they are coming out. >>> I am wondering why my elbow (where I scraped it) has a swollen ulnar nerve, and I cannot pick anything up well. Wrapping the elbow hurts even more! +++The nerve could be trying to heal, so that's the reason it swells. >>I have tried to rub on clove oil, but it doesn't work very effectively. +++Oil of oregano is better than clove oil. Just mix it 50/50 with olive oil and rub it on. You can soak some gauze with it and tape it on, replenishing the oil as needed. >> p.s. would the x-rays cause reduced bone density? +++I don't know whether x-rays directly reduce bone density, however they do increase toxins your body has to deal with, and they do cause cancer.

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2010 Report Share Posted December 31, 2010 Hi Bee, The other day I asked about my knee pain and you asked if I could be retracing. I've always had bad knees being a dancer for 12 years but nothing like this pain so I don't think it's retracing. Recently I told you I've been doing light aerobics and I'm thinking I may have hurt it while jumping around. I'm wondering if I tore something? I know you said to not get xrays but what should I do? If I did tear something or cartilage is detached from the bone shouldn't I go to the doctor? Isn't the only way they can tell what the pain is, is by doing an xray? The pain I'm having is in the inside of my knee cap and it's a sharp twisting pain that almost throbs. What should I do at this point? I really don't want to see a doctor but what if I did injure it? Thanks for your help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can detox an x-ray if necessary. Any drugs prescription need not be filled. Its better to put your mind at ease and have some idea what you need to address, if anything.
