Knee pain I don't walking so that the knee are lock

Hello Vijay Ji,

To provide the best advice, we need a little more information:

1️⃣ How long have you had the pain? (Days, weeks, or months?)
2️⃣ Where exactly is the pain? (Lower back, upper back, or middle back?)
3️⃣ Is the pain constant, or does it come and go?
4️⃣ Did the pain start after lifting something heavy or an injury?
5️⃣ Do you feel numbness, tingling, or weakness in your legs?
6️⃣ Does the pain worsen with movement or while resting?
7️⃣ Do you have any existing medical conditions like arthritis, osteoporosis, or diabetes?

Precautions & Self-Care Tips:

✅ Rest, but avoid complete bed rest – Too much inactivity can worsen back pain.
✅ Apply Ice or Heat – Ice packs (first 48 hours) can reduce inflammation; heat (after 48 hours) helps relax muscles.
✅ Maintain Good Posture – Sit and stand straight to avoid straining your back.
✅ Gentle Stretching & Walking – Helps improve flexibility and reduce stiffness.
✅ Avoid Heavy Lifting – If necessary, bend your knees and keep your back straight.
✅ Use a Supportive Mattress – A firm or orthopaedic mattress can help relieve pain.

When to See a Doctor?

🚩 If pain lasts more than 2 weeks or worsens
🚩 If you experience numbness, tingling, or weakness in your legs
🚩 If pain is severe at night or wakes you up
🚩 If you have fever, weight loss, or difficulty controlling urine/stool

If your pain is mild to moderate, physical therapy, posture correction, and simple pain relievers may help. However, if your pain is persistent or severe, a doctor's evaluation, X-ray, or MRI may be needed to check for issues like a herniated disc or arthritis.

❓ Additional Information Needed for Diagnosis

To provide a better assessment, please share:

• Pain Management: Apply warm or cold compresses and take mild pain relievers (after consulting a doctor).
• Nutritional Support: Maintain a diet rich in vitamins (B12, D, magnesium) and stay hydrated.
• Avoid Strenuous Activity: Don't strain muscles; opt for light stretching if possible.
• Monitor for Worsening Symptoms: If you experience sudden paralysis, slurred speech, facial drooping, or difficulty breathing, seek urgent medical care.

🩺 Recommended Treatment Plan

1. Immediate Medical Evaluation: Visit a neurologist or orthopaedic specialist for a detailed check-up.
   
2. Diagnostic Tests May Include:

   MRI or CT scan (brain and spine)
   Nerve conduction studies (to check for nerve damage)

3. Blood tests (to check for diabetes, vitamin deficiencies, thyroid function)

4. Physiotherapy & Rehabilitation: Depending on the diagnosis, physiotherapy may help improve mobility and reduce pain.

5. Medication: Treatment will depend on the cause but may include pain relievers, nerve supplements, or other specific medications.

Please seek medical attention as soon as possible to prevent symptoms from worsening.

Hello Suraj,

ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) injury can be treated, and the right approach depends on the severity of the tear and your activity level.

Treatment Options:

👉 Non-Surgical Treatment: If the tear is partial or if you have a low activity level, physiotherapy, bracing, and strengthening exercises may help stabilize the knee.

👉 Surgical Treatment: If the ACL is completely torn and you want to return to an active lifestyle (sports, heavy work, etc.), ACL reconstruction surgery is usually recommended.

With advancements like keyhole (minimally invasive) surgery, the procedure involves smaller cuts, less pain, and faster healing. The use of autografts or allografts provides better stability and long-term success. Improved surgical techniques also help in faster recovery and reduce the risk of re-injury, allowing patients to return to an active lifestyle within 6-9 months.
