What does tibial tuberosity bilaterally mean? could i have knee fractures?!


Question:

What does tibial tuberosity bilaterally mean? could i have knee fractures?

I was in Airborne School back in Oct. and had one hard landing. I had a bone scan to check for broken bones in my back. The results came up with tibial tuberosity bilaterlly. I don't know what this means or what to do about it. My knees are in pain all the time and I can barely walk. Can someone help me out.


Answers:

Your tibial tuberosity is the bone that sticks out a little just below your knee cap. Bilaterally means on both sides. There is no pathology in the wording that you gave. Basically tibial tuberosity bilaterally means "knees on both sides"....it doesnt say what may be wrong.
