I have found recently that if I kneel down even only for a few mins when I try to straighten out my legs again the pain at the back of my knee is awful and I need to rub them. Is this anything to do with the Fybromyalgia ?
Hi Kathleen,
might be a bit of a bulge at the back of the knee caused by a Bakers cyst.
So painful
cheers
What both knees ?
Can do, worth getting checked or might be arthritis .
I've got it in one knee, found ultra sound really helps both my knees.
Getting older sucks!
Sure sounds like osteo arthritis to me, my right knee first began to creek when I was 57 as I recall and now 76, and since hip replacement and shorter leg and all the junk that happened, knee is worse but I so resist any knee surgery....
We can take a lot to help that knee, good topicals, knee support, acupuncture can help as it worsens, Prolotherapy helps with knee issues.... I don't kneel and if I have to get down on floor to find something, it's a challenge, I can do it with pain...
Some get cortisone injections, but too much steroids do a lot of bone damage....
