Guest guest Posted November 9, 2006 Report Posted November 9, 2006 Has anyone ever squatted down, and your knee " catches " and you are in agony? It seems like you can't move if at all for a few seconds, then you stand up and are just fine! This happens about every 3-4 months, I have no other knee problems...... Thanks, Pris (glad to be back after a busy summer entertaining at state fairs)! Quote
Guest guest Posted November 9, 2006 Report Posted November 9, 2006 There are times when my knee catches and locks up. As you, mine happens about three or four times a year - mainly when I am not watching what I am doing. My doctor has suggested a knee replacement; however, I am not quite ready to do that when the problem only occurs a few times a year. I really have to watch what I am doing, though. For example, when I sit at a desk, I have to remember not to put my feet directly under me or underneath the chair when I sit at the edge of my seat. It is just one of the many things a RA person lives with I guess. --- NELLIESTAR@... wrote: > Has anyone ever squatted down, and your knee > " catches " and you are in agony? > It seems like you can't move if at all for a few > seconds, then you stand up > and are just fine! > This happens about every 3-4 months, I have no other > knee problems...... > Thanks, > Pris (glad to be back after a busy summer > entertaining at state fairs)! > > > > > > > > > [Non-text portions of this message have been > removed] > > > > > Quote
Guest guest Posted November 10, 2006 Report Posted November 10, 2006 Hi, My knees don't collapse or lock up. They do hurt when I keep one bent too long. I do have to be careful to what positions I put my legs in and I don't have RA. Have the same problem with hips. Can't do anything yet since insurance changes Jan 1.
