Knee pain

greenspun.com : LUSENET : About Joints : One Thread

why does the upper of my leg freeze up right up to the groin and I cannot lift my foot up off the ground or bend the leg to sit down, I have been complaining of my knee and have had an arthroscopy, but the doctor does no seem to think that it is coming from but from the hip, but it is the knee that hurts, and now the other is also going bad?

Response to knee pain

The recommendation for a specific patient requires a comprehensive physician evaluation that requires a complete history, physical and often x-rays, images and laboratory tests.
