Gradually worsening knee problem
    #4968088 - 11/22/05 12:25 PM (18 years, 2 months ago)

I noticed a couple weeks ago my knee was cracking more than usual, only it was cracking very easily. Like a knuckle that refuses to crack, you keep trying and it hurts more and more. Now it takes like four or five pops before it actually cracks and feels better but the pain when I try and get it to crack is getting worse and worse.

I don't like this feeling at all and I'm too young for my knees to be fucking up on me already. Its just in my right knee and I can't help but crack it, when you get that feeling in a joint. I think it may have something to do with my new car and the way my leg rests or is positioned while driving.

Should I get it looked at by a chiropractor? Is there anything I can do to stop this need to crack it all the time? It's starting to get uncomfortably painful.

I have the same problem...but my knee hurts.

See a doctor, get X-rays and MRI done...they will know what the problem is from there.

Sounds like a tear in the cartalidge somewhere. You may need orthoscopic surgery to trim it. It can become worse. I just had this surgery about 3 weeks ago. I also had it on my other knee about 10 or more years ago.

Go get physio ... I had problems with my knees, but it turns out it has to do with a tight tendon (problem went away after doing certain streches)... pretty simple and painless.

it could be a number of different things.

get that shit scanned.

my best guess is a minor arthritis or degraded synovial ligament. but nothing can be really accurately assessed from the description.

I'm going to see a physiotherapist tomorrow morning, I'll let everyone know what her diagnosis and treatment is.

I don't know if that capricorn comment was supposed to be for me, or what relevance it has at all, but no. No I'm not.
