Pain behind right knee
(2 discussions)
A few months ago I had a wreck on my sons go cart and I hit my right knee.. It is fine to walk on and does not hurt all the time. The main time I have pain is when I bend it for more than a few minutes at a time..like to curl up on the couch and watch a movie.. When it is bent for too long it hurts very much to straighten it out..Any ideas? The front of the knee is fine and that is where I hit it when I got in the little wreck.

The first thing that comes to mind given your age and the grinding is perhaps a muscle imbalance and your patella is not tracking properly, thus it is “knocking” into the long bones of the leg and causing grinding (crepitus) and ultimately pain. Go see a doc and ask for a physical therapy prescription. Go see a physical therapist who can do Mcconnel taping or is a certified kinesiotaping therapist. Your PT can do an in depth evaluation and hopefully come up with some conslusive diagnosis. Good luck,M. Scott PT
