Knee Swelling ~?!
Question:
Knee Swelling ~?
Hi ~
Hoping someone can help me out....
Friday when doing my LBWO, I heard several pops while doing my step-ups..(everytime I stepped up, it popped) Now, I'm used to my knees crackling, but not popping...
As of today, my knee is still swelled, but only a dull ache (top of knee and behind) & stiffness, no major pain. It still pops/cracks at times, but only walking up and down stairs or I turn the wrong way. Do you think it is a good idea to see a doctor? Or, should I just wait it out and rest/motrin and see if the swelling goes away.
Also, yesterday I noticed a small bump on my knee cap???
Thank you for any help you can give!!
Answers:
You could have some fluid on your knee.
Rest the leg in a raised position, to help with drainage.
If it is no better in a day or two, see your doctor.
Good luck
