Should i wrap my knee? It tries to lock, it buckles and catches..?!
Question: i really don't want to be told to go to a doc. i really don't want to go to an orthopedic doc. i don't really have the $ right now either.
so... this is sorta a yes or no question.
will it help or not?

it might help. if your knee is swollen, ice it several times a day for 6 minutes. elevate it when you sit down. of course, you should see a doc, but if you are short on money, you should at least go to a drug store and buy an ace bandage and maybe a crutch to help take weight off it.
my friend had this and it turned out to be artritice
try a free clinic
try the wrap and maybe a crutch if you can afford it
take a few advil if it hurts alot
put ice on for 5 and off for 5 several times daily
sit and sleep with it eveated
dont use a heat pack it it is swollen
is the bone misshaped atal? if it is, forget the money and go to the doctor!!!
if it i swollen for more than a week, go to the doctor!!!
good luck and get well soon!!!
probably not... if it buckles and locks up then u NEED to see a doc...
sorry....
knee buckling and catching and locking is NEVER a good sign.....
i know u dont want to get this taken care of but u need to
