              Legs hurt below the knees

              ?Perhaps this is a vascular disease, thrombophlebitis. Then you need ointments based on horse chestnut. If the pain is of a rheumatic nature, then rub and ointments with a warming effect. , which is contraindicated in thrombophlebitis. If pain occurs in the heat, cool baths and wraps will bring relief. In general, there is nothing better than lilac tincture - its action relieves almost all pain in the legs. Only you need to make it yourself.? ?CAT?

              Why do my legs hurt below the knees?

              ?Cardiovascular diseases, in addition to edema of the lower extremities and thrombophlebitis conditions, cause pain of an obliterating nature. This is a special type of atherosclerosis of the blood vessels of the circulatory system. If your legs hurt below the knees, this is a consequence of disruption of the main blood flow in the arteries, especially the lower leg. The lumen in them narrows due to plaques, the internal lumen becomes narrow. There is pain in the calf muscles and intermittent claudication is observed. The disease does not allow long walks or walking distances, which forces the patient to sit down, rest, and then the pain symptoms decrease. If the disease develops, then over time the sensation of pain will not be left alone. An important sign is dry skin, flaking or hyperkeratosis. If you pay attention to such points in time, you can avoid serious complications that will lead to surgery.?

              ?These include osteochondrosis of all sections of the spinal column, sciatica, and lumbodynia. If the lumbar region is damaged, especially if there is a herniation or protrusion of the disc, pain may occur along the nerve roots-branches, on the right or left leg. This type of pain intensifies when turning, bending, or awkward movements and occurs in the lower leg and can radiate to the foot. It is often accompanied by numbness of the limb, which is already an alarming symptom.?

              ?When playing sports, it is recommended to protect the knee with special knee pads, a wedge heel and a special bandage.?

              ?Osteoarthritis therapy consists of pain relief and restoration of the affected tissues of the joint and its components, as well as restoration of motor function. To begin with, if possible, the cause of the disease is determined, and if it is established, then there is a need to eliminate it. For example, the cause of osteoarthritis is excess weight, then the patient is asked to lose weight. In addition to drug treatment, the doctor prescribes additional therapeutic measures: physiotherapy, acupuncture, massage, physical therapy and others.?

              ?The position of the knee joint is felt unstable.?

              ?Excess weight provokes joint damage.?

              ?New growth under the knee (Becker cyst).?

              ?also taking painkillers and anti-inflammatory drugs.?

              ?This category includes dislocations, bone fractures and diseases such as arthritis, arthrosis, inflammation of the knee menisci. If the leg bone below the knee hurts, then this is an alarming symptom, because unlike muscle pain, this is usually a sign of a serious illness or injury.?

              ?probably bruised, probably didn’t notice how she hit herself?

              Treatment of pain in the legs below the knee

              Lack of vitamins (hypovitaminosis), especially if the patient is a fan of strict diets, can lead to pain in the legs, which is especially acute at night. They are accompanied by cramps in the calf muscles and in the top. This indicates a lack of the elements potassium, iron, and magnesium. This can be easily corrected with the help of multivitamin complexes and proper balanced nutrition.?

              ?This form of causes can also include flat feet. If you do not wear special orthopedic shoes or insoles, the patient will experience pain not only in the foot, but also in the shin and knee. The development of flat feet must be monitored from childhood and timely treatment and preventive measures must be taken: gymnastics, massage, wearing arch supports.?

              ?If a person’s activity involves monotonous leg movements that affect the structure of the knee joint, then a warm-up should be introduced during breaks.? ?This disease is mostly characteristic of boys aged 11 to 18 years, especially it occurs in those who are actively involved in sports. The essence of Schlatter's disease is that the tibial tuberosity is injured, which in adolescents is still in a loose state.?

              ?If a tendon or ligament is sprained, first aid is provided in the same way. To begin with, cold is applied to the damaged area. Then it is necessary to immobilize the joint using a splint or elastic bandage and place it in an elevated position. If the patient is in severe pain, painkillers can be given. Seek help from a doctor.?

              There are many reasons for the appearance of pain under the knee, but they are mainly associated with inflammatory or traumatic injuries to the tendons. See similar symptoms of pain in the legs below the knees here. If your leg hurts under the knee, it is mainly due to damage or inflammatory disease of the tendons. Tendons are very sensitive to sprains, injuries, inflammation or ruptures. Although they are strong, they cannot stretch much. In addition to the fact that acute pain under the knee can occur due to tendon disease, it can also appear as a result of serious illnesses. For example, a ruptured meniscus or a fracture of the patella, dislocation or inflammation of the periosteum. Mostly, athletes suffer from tendon diseases. There are even specific definitions of diseases for a particular sport: “runner's syndrome”, “jumper's knee” or “swimmer’s knee”. But these diseases have also been confirmed by those who do not engage in active physical exercise and even children. Varicose veins, which are accompanied by heaviness, throbbing, or a nagging pain under the knee, can also cause pain under the knee. Uncomfortable shoes that do not allow the knee joint to bend normally can also cause tendon strain.

              ?Ligament sprain or rupture.?

              Causes of pain under the knee

            • ?Aching long-term pain in the leg below the knee, as a rule, is a symptom of a developing inflammatory process, arthrosis, arthritis, rheumatoid condition. The symptoms themselves can be relieved by using ointments with an analgesic and anti-inflammatory effect.?
            • ?Vascular and nerve damage?
            • ?—this is the part of the leg from the knee to the heel, pain in which can be caused by damage to any of its components: muscles, tendons, ligaments, blood vessels, periosteum. Therefore, pain in the legs below the knee is a fairly common phenomenon, and it can occur for a variety of reasons. In most cases, such pain is episodic, often does not require serious treatment and is caused by excessive physical activity or micronutrient deficiencies. But this problem can also occur due to injury and illness.?
            • ?Personal Account Removed?
            • ?In general, whatever the reasons, it is necessary to seek qualified medical help in order to avoid consequences and choose treatment tactics.?
            • ?Arthrosis and arthritis of the lower extremities, bursitis of the knee joints is reflected in pain and swelling syndromes. The pain can be of a different nature, very often accompanied by swelling, redness, and occurs when moving or at rest, at night. The left or right half of the entire body suffers more, sometimes only the limbs. Morning pain more often occurs in people prone to rheumatoid arthrosis and gout. Severely restricting movement, it goes away only after warming up. Sometimes the patient has to spend a few minutes in bed to warm up and only then can he get up.?
            • ?If the knee is damaged, it is recommended to immobilize or reduce the load on the knee as much as possible for at least two days.?
            • The disease begins with tenderness in the knee joint and pain occurs when moving, especially when squatting or bending the knee. Severe pain under the knee appears when kneeling. During the development of the disease, growths around the knee joint and swelling below the knee may appear.?
            • ?Basically, treatment of ligaments occurs in several stages and can last from several weeks to several months. If the sprain was mild or moderate, then apply an elastic bandage. If a ligament or tendon is torn, a cast is applied. To reduce and relieve swelling, it is recommended to use ice every three to four hours for about twenty minutes. When lying down, the knee should be higher than the level of the heart, so it is best to place it on a pillow. Drug treatment may include painkillers and anti-inflammatory tablets and medications to restore the joint itself. Crutches or a brace may be needed to get around. After the swelling subsides, treatment can be continued using various compresses or a heating pad to increase joint mobility. It is recommended to do a massage simultaneously with thermal treatment. To fully restore the functionality of the joint, rehabilitation treatment in the form of physiotherapy and physical therapy is required.?
            • ?It is very difficult for a non-professional to distinguish the symptoms of ligament pain from tendon pain. With a sudden movement, not only the ligaments can be sprained, but also the tendons. In both cases, severe pain begins, swelling appears and movement becomes difficult. When tendons are damaged, the skin color changes less than when there is a ligament injury. When a tendon ruptures, a cracking sound can be heard, after which the muscle stops functioning and the lower leg stops extending. Let's look at the main symptoms of a sprain:?
            • ?Displacement or fracture of the popliteal cap.?
            • ?Given that pain in the legs can have a wide variety of origins, in cases where acute pain does not stop for more than 2-3 days or constantly intensifies, is accompanied by swelling, and limits mobility, you should immediately consult a doctor and not self-medicate.?
            • ?Venous thrombosis, varicose veins, narrowing of blood vessels, pinched and damaged nerves.?

            ?Let's look at the main reasons why legs below the knees may hurt.?

            Pain in the tendon behind the knee or pain in the ligaments behind the knee

            ?This will mean that you should have sex lying down, not standing..?

          • ?Lucy?
          • ?The most painful sensations below the knees occur in people prone to congestion in the veins. Such pains are pronounced, identical in manifestation:?
          • ?In order to avoid pain under the knee, it is necessary to protect the knee itself from hypothermia.?
          • ?In mild cases of the disease, it is recommended to reduce or eliminate large loads on the joint (avoid jumping, running, squats). If the pain recurs regularly, then the affected joint is immobilized with a splint for two months until the pain disappears. If the initial treatment does not produce results and the pain persists, then the joint is operated on and the excess inert growths are removed.?
          • ?One of the common problems of the knee joint and the occurrence of pain under the knee is meniscal tears. An awkward sudden movement or prolonged squatting creates additional stress, which can lead to a meniscus tear. Only specialists can diagnose a meniscus tear and distinguish it from a regular bruise. But there are signs that suggest that the menisci are injured. Based on them, it is necessary to urgently contact a surgeon. Signs of meniscus injury:?
          • ?Movement of the knee is difficult or even impossible. If the ligaments are completely torn, the knee becomes very mobile.?
          • ?Inflammation or rupture of tendons.?

            ?Many people complain that they have pain in their legs behind their knees. Such pain occurs for many reasons. The knee joint, being the largest and most complex joint in the human body, is subject to daily stress and is often subject to various types of inflammation, injury and damage.?

            Meniscal damage

            ?It is necessary to undergo an x-ray - perhaps there was a bruise or a crack.. You are a young man who will take this phenomenon seriously..)))). Actually, I read it a long time ago. that men who drink a lot of alcohol during a hangover have pain in the leg bone (withdrawal) What a strange phenomenon! ! I hope this does not apply to you..))))?

            ?beginning gradually (up to 10 days), then acquiring a more pronounced and permanent character;?

            ?Patient complaints that their legs hurt below the knees often manifest themselves at stages when the disease is already developing. In the initial period, few people paid due attention to this fact. These pains can occur at night or in the evening, are not associated with overload of the body, and do not depend on weather conditions. Painful sensations can vary in strength and intensity, in sensations and perceptions. They affect both the foot and the lower leg, causing suffering. Why do my legs hurt below the knees? Let's try to figure it out.?

            ?In medicine, the kneecap is called the patella, which is located in front of the knee joint. This is a very small bone that protects the knee joint.?

            ?the leg does not bend or unbend;?

            ?If you press on the knee, sharp pain occurs.?

            ?Softening or deformation of articular cartilage.?

            Patella fracture

            ?Traumatic injuries caused by physical exertion or as a result of improper warm-up before long-term active training.?

            ?This list includes causes that are not directly the result of damage to the legs below the knees, but can cause pain in them. Such factors are a violation of the water-salt balance in the body, inflammation of subcutaneous adipose tissue, radiculitis, pregnancy.?

            ?First of all, this is a lot of physical activity, which can cause muscle pain, and sometimes severe cramps. In addition, cramps in the calf muscles can be caused by a lack of certain microelements in the body (potassium, calcium, magnesium). These causes of pain in the leg muscles below the knee are quite easy to eliminate. More serious are cases of inflammatory processes in the muscles, as well as pain caused by various injuries and sprains.?

            ?Well, if it didn’t hit you, then maybe you, like grandmothers, have pain in bad weather.?

            Preventive measures for knee pain

            • ?a feeling of heaviness appears in the legs, the pain becomes bursting on all sides of the lower leg, especially where there is an affected venous artery;?
            • ?First of all, it should be noted that the lower part of the leg consists of two large joints: the ankle and knee, and on the foot - those associated with the toes. The lower leg is divided by doctors into two sections: anterior and posterior. They are delimited in front by the tibia, its inner edge, and in the back by part of the fibula, which includes the ankle. The lower limbs are richly supplied with blood vessels, nerve endings, muscles and ligaments. Depending on the location of the pain, sensations, and associated complications, examination can find causes that reflect characteristic signs. What exactly can cause pain - only a specialist doctor knows the answer.?
            • ?A fracture of the patella can be suspected if the leg under the knee in front constantly hurts, and the pain especially intensifies when leaning on the sore leg or trying to stretch it. Swelling appears, and sometimes deformation of the knee joint occurs. As a rule, after a fracture of the cup, a bruise appears, which can eventually move to the foot.?
            • ?there was a feeling that there was a click and the knee joint was jammed.?
            • ?When driving, crunching and clicking noises are heard.?

              Anatomical features

              ?Injuries resulting from a bruise, fall, blow.?

              ?Pain can be different in type, frequency and place of occurrence, but it is always an unpleasant sensation, because if the leg hurts below the knee, then, naturally, it has to be treated.?

              Traumatic injuries

              ?Damage to ligaments and tendons?

              Spinal diseases

              ?First we need to take an x-ray. No normal doctor will just give advice?

              Inflammatory processes

              ?the limb changes color, becomes purple, the right or left side swells greatly;?

              Stagnation in the venous vessels

              ?Often, professional responsibilities force you to be in the same position. These are teachers, salesmen, machine workers, hairdressers. By evening, my legs swell and hurt a lot, especially below the knee. Due to stagnation associated with work, pain can bring unbearable torment.?

            • ?First you need to immobilize your leg and apply ice. Consult a doctor.?
            • ?It should be noted that with a prolonged injury to the menisci, pain may not occur in a calm state, but appear only during descent. Over time, damaged menisci lead to the destruction of articular cartilage, so you should consult a doctor as soon as possible. After a diagnosis of a meniscus tear is made, mandatory surgery follows. Even experienced surgeons cannot immediately detect a meniscal tear. To diagnose a meniscal injury, it is recommended to use magnetic resonance imaging, since x-rays only show bones, and with ultrasound you can only see 50-60% damage to the joint.
            • ?A hematoma appears slightly below the damaged area.?
            • ?Various diseases in the hip joint area.?
            • ?Inflammatory processes in a joint or periarticular bursa: arthritis, gout, osteoarthritis, bursitis.?

              Obliterative atherosclerosis

              ?The easiest, most treatable problem is muscle pain or cramps. If they are a consequence of physical overstrain, then they do not require any specific treatment except massage and gentle treatment. If your legs below the knee hurt at night and cramps occur, then this symptom is most likely caused by a deficiency of microelements and requires taking vitamin supplements.?

              Metabolic disorders

              ?The most common cause in this case is a sprain. But there are possible options for damage and inflammation of the ligaments and tendons, usually requiring long-term treatment (for example, ruptures).?

              ?Maybe I pulled a muscle?

              My leg hurts below the knee, in front of the bone. (((((((((((

              ?The pain intensifies so much that it is impossible to step on your foot.?

              ?Often, pain occurs in athletes who withstand extreme loads on joints and bones due to jumping, running, and strength training. This pain can be acute or constant, aching. In these cases, only unloading the joints and frequent changes of body position help. This is done for proper distribution of blood flow within the body.?

              ?Treatment of a patellar fracture is determined by the nature of the fracture and the displacement of the fragments. Fractures can be stable or unstable. With stable fractures there is no tendency to displacement; with unstable fractures, displacement has already occurred or will occur in the future. If there is no displacement of the fragments, then treatment occurs in a conservative manner. A cast or orthosis is applied to the knee joint for up to 6 weeks. If there is even a slight displacement of the fragments, then the fragments are combined using the surgical method and the surface of the joint is restored, after which the cup is fixed. A kneecap fracture is a very serious and severe injury. Subsequently, such a fracture may develop arthrosis, which will cause pain in the joint.?

              My legs hurt for the third day, below the knee, in front of the bones... what does this mean and how to treat it?

              ?One of the common diseases of the knee joint is osteoarthritis, which can lead to deformation of the knee joint and immobility of the knee as a whole. Osteoarthritis is a chronic disease in which joint cartilage is gradually destroyed and mobility is impaired. People over 40 years of age are most susceptible to this disease. These are mainly women who are overweight. Excess weight puts a lot of stress on all joints of the legs, including the knee. Also, the development of the disease is associated with disruption of metabolic and hormonal processes. In people over 60 years of age, this disease is caused by age-related changes and aging of the joints. At this age, self-healing of cartilage tissue no longer occurs.?

              ?The damaged area swells.?

              ?Infectious processes: sexually transmitted diseases or psoriasis.?

              If the leg hurts below the knee in front, then this most often indicates an inflammatory process in the tendon tissues or joints, the development of which is usually associated with sports and resulting microtraumas. With such symptoms, the most gentle regimen is prescribed, up to the application of fixing bandages, eh?

              ?Injuries and diseases of bones and joints?

              ?I had this. This is rheumatism. It happens even in children and even more so in adults. Apply ointment for rheumatism on your feet and place them on a high place, such as a pillow. You need to rest for at least the evening. Then apply the ointment for a week. Does it help?

              ?In especially dangerous cases, such phenomena can lead to gangrene and amputation of a limb. With this nature of the disease, trophic ulcers with purulent discharge can often occur, which also requires immediate medical intervention. Similar symptoms may be associated with manifestations of cardiac pathology. The only difference is that swelling appears on both legs at the same time.?

              ?Sometimes an injury that may have been suffered in childhood makes itself felt in the form of a pain syndrome. Any mechanical damage particularly affects the structure of the bone and ligament. Over time, inflammatory processes appear in the front or back of the lower leg, and swelling is detected at the site of the traumatic injury. Therefore, any injury must be treated and preventive procedures periodically carried out to avoid consequences.?

              ?For an article on the topic about pain under the knee in the back, see the link.?

              ?Osteoarthritis causes pain under the knee cap, a feeling of discomfort, rapid leg fatigue, difficulty moving the knee, swelling and deformation of the knee may appear. At the last stage of the disease, severe pain appears under the knee and in the knee itself, the muscles around the knee become atrophied. Movement becomes severely limited or even impossible. It is possible to cure the disease at this stage only by implanting a knee joint.?

              The bone in the front below the knee hurts

              The shin is the part of the leg from the knee to the heel. Pain in this area can be due to injuries to the muscles, tendons, ligaments, blood vessels or periosteum. Therefore, people can very often complain that it hurts under the knee in front. Painful sensations can appear once after excessive physical exertion or due to a lack of microelements. Let's take a closer look at why the bone below the knee hurts, which doctor you should consult for advice so that he can prescribe the correct and effective treatment.

              Causes of bone pain below the knee

              The bone below the knee may hurt due to the following factors:

            • Due to damage to the leg muscles. Due to excessive strenuous exercise, muscle pain and severe cramps occur;
            • The bone may begin to hurt due to sprained ligaments. Ligament ruptures require long-term treatment;
            • The bones in the knee can hurt due to arthritis, arthrosis, and inflammation of the knee meniscus. Pain at the bottom of the knee may indicate serious illness or a leg injury;
            • The bones in the legs may hurt due to a violation of the water-salt balance in the body, an inflamed subcutaneous fat layer, radiculitis, or pregnancy.
            • The bone below the knee may begin to hurt due to severe bruising, which occurred during sports activities when the leg collided with hard objects. In this situation, the front knee begins to hurt severely, swelling and bruising appear, which can make themselves felt even a couple of days after the injury.

              Acute pain below the knee is caused by the following injuries:

            • The tendons that connect the bone and muscles are damaged;
            • Tendons can be elastic, but at the same time they cannot be subjected to strong and prolonged stretching;
            • Due to high physical activity, the menisci - shock-absorbing pads - can tear;
            • Pain under the knee can occur due to a fracture of the cup located in the knee area;
            • The knee joint may also dislocate, causing pain;
            • Also, the knee bone can detach, which provokes the development of severe pain.
            • The bone below the knee at the front may become painful due to obesity. In this case, the first task should be to lose excess weight, and then diagnose and prescribe treatment for the pain itself.

              The bone at the front of the knee may also become painful due to the development of a cyst, which can form due to arthritis. If the pain is of this origin, it is important to treat the arthritis first.

              The knee joint may begin to hurt due to problems in the hip joint or pinched nerves. To solve this problem, it is important to undergo comprehensive treatment according to the recommendations of an osteopath.

              What causes pain behind the knees in front?

              The bone below the knee in front may hurt:

            • Due to weakness of the medial extensor head, which puts pressure on the kneecap and prevents it from moving correctly. If this phenomenon becomes chronic, the kneecap softens and becomes deformed;
            • Due to constant rotation of the tibia, the patella becomes displaced. This phenomenon can especially often be found among athletes;
            • Pain in the front of the knee may indicate the presence of a disease such as tendinitis, which makes itself felt during physical activity or going up or down stairs. Read more about tendonitis and tendovaginitis of the knee joint in a separate material.

              Knee pain in children

              A child may experience pain under the knee due to a childhood injury or due to vascular disorders. Teenagers often complain of pain in their legs, since at this age the skeletal system develops very quickly. Children's knees begin to suffer due to lack of blood supply. Such symptoms may go away on their own after some time, when the child grows up a little, in other words, when he outgrows the disease.

              The area under the knee in children may begin to hurt due to rheumatism or spondyloarthritis. With these diseases, the joints hurt and swell, and sometimes the temperature rises. Pathology in the bone can be detected by taking x-rays. Treatment is prescribed by doctors such as a rheumatologist, orthopedist or therapist.

              Children must be under constant medical supervision, follow a special diet and take certain anti-inflammatory drugs.

              Who treats bone pain below the knee

              If pain in the bone below the knee in the front part occurs due to a disease such as arthrosis, it is recommended to first consult a general practitioner, then a rheumatologist and a surgeon.

              Treatment of pain in the knee bones is also carried out by a traumatologist, arthrologist, orthopedist, physiotherapist, chiropractor, massage therapist or physical therapy instructor.

              A couple of highly specialized specialists can treat, advise and monitor treatment at once. In addition to visiting the doctors described above, it is recommended to undergo a complete medical examination to exclude the development of serious diseases.

              To diagnose the cause of pain in the anterior part of the knee bone, you need to undergo a comprehensive examination, which consists of ultrasound, radiography, MRI, CT, arthroscopy and other studies.

            • discomfort when going up and down stairs;
            • unpleasant crunching, clicking not of your own accord;
            • Is pain in the leg muscles below the knee dangerous?

              Pain in the leg muscles below the knee is common, especially if a person has been physically active the day before. But if it does not go away within four days, and, importantly, bothers a person at night, you should immediately consult a doctor.

              Causes of discomfort in the lower leg muscles

              Why does my leg hurt below the knee in front? It is often very difficult for a person to distinguish between pain in a muscle from overwork and pain in the leg due to some pathology, so it is very dangerous to make diagnoses while sitting in the kitchen with friends; it is better to go to the doctor once and once again make sure that everything is in order.

              Interesting! In medicine, muscle pain is called myalgia.

              Still, the main cause of myalgia in the lower leg muscles is physical fatigue. Pain in the front of the knee can occur for the following reasons:

              1. Staying without moving your legs for a long time, for example, on an airplane or in a car. This type of myalgia is caused by stagnation of blood in the extremities, and there is a risk of developing varicose veins. The pain is usually aching and stabbing. It usually goes away after rest; it is especially useful to hold your legs above your head, for example, by leaning them on the back of the sofa.
              2. Physical activity, especially running or long walking. This phenomenon in athletes is called sore throat and is a consequence of microdamage in the muscles and stagnation of lactic acid in them. As a rule, the sore throat goes away without a trace after rest.
              3. Some even believe that if after physical activity the muscles do not hurt the next day, then the training was ineffective. Of course, this is an erroneous opinion, since there should be no soreness in trained muscles.

                Pain in the front of the leg

                Separately, it is worth considering myalgia in the front of the lower leg. The bone below the knee in front hurts when running or walking, after a long break, or if a person has never been involved in sports at all. It feels like pain in a bone, but it is not the bone that hurts, but the periosteum - the tissue covering the bone. This discomfort is especially unpleasant for athletes preparing for competitions; they may experience such pain as a result of increased loads.

                Vascular pathologies

                There are a lot of arteries and veins in the legs, which experience enormous stress every day and can malfunction.

                Caused by atherosclerotic plaques growing on the walls of blood vessels and narrowing the lumen. As a result, blood circulates poorly through the veins, and stagnation in the veins begins, causing muscle pain. With such pain, when walking, discomfort appears below the knee, which forces the person to stop.

                Pain below the knee can also be attributed to vascular pathologies. Varicose veins require careful examination, since in its final stages surgical intervention may be necessary.

                Restless legs syndrome

                In medicine, there is the concept of restless legs syndrome.

                It manifests itself in the fact that a person experiences discomfort in the lower leg area at night. In order to relieve these sensations, you have to get out of bed, walk, stretch your legs, but this only brings relief for a while. As soon as a person falls asleep, the pain returns again. Restless legs syndrome has several causes:

                • diabetes;
                • idiopathic cause, that is, the symptom exists on its own;
                • damage to the lower leg muscles.
                • Due to the fact that such a symptom may be the only sign of incipient diabetes, it should never be ignored.

                  Pain below the knee in front

                  Separately, you should consider discomfort under the knee in front, since this pathology has many causes:

                • injuries after physical activity;
                • bacterial infections;
                • tumors;
                • ligament injuries;
                • injuries from bruises and falls;
                • inflammation of the joints and periarticular bursa;
                • softening of articular cartilage;
                • Schlatter's disease.
                • Pain from damaged ligaments and tendons has similar symptoms:

                • a characteristic crack at the moment of rupture;
                • cessation of muscle function;
                • impossible to move your knee;
                • sharp pain when pressing on the knee;
                • crunching while moving;
                • pain radiating to lower areas, down to the foot;
                • hematoma;
                • edema.
                • Based on the clinical picture, the doctor determines the source of pain. If required, conducts a more in-depth diagnosis and then prescribes treatment.

                  A torn meniscus is quite often the cause of pain in the front of the knee. The main symptoms are:

                • pain behind the knee;
                • immobility of the knee joint;
                • click when damaged.
                • If there is a suspicion of a meniscus tear, you should urgently consult a surgeon, since even experienced surgeons cannot always accurately diagnose this case.

                  Important! An undiagnosed meniscus tear may not manifest itself over time; pain may occur only when going down the stairs.

                  Unfortunately, if a meniscus tear is detected, the only option is surgery to treat it.

                  This disease most often affects people over 40 years of age. Manifests:

                • pain under the kneecap;
                • rapid fatigue in the legs;
                • difficult movement of the knee;
                • swelling;
                • knee deformity;
                • muscle atrophy in the final stages.
                • In the final stages of osteoporosis, only knee replacement can help.

                  More often, pathology and pain occur in adolescents involved in sports.

                • increased sensitivity under the knee when pressing;
                • pain when moving;
                • swelling just below the knee.
                • As in other cases, this disease requires consultation with a specialist. In the initial stage of the disease, only rest will be required; in more advanced cases, a splint will be required.

                  Sometimes a person discovers a swelling under his kneecap, and the first thought that arises is cancer. But a tumor below the knee does not always mean a malignant tumor. The bone in the leg below the knee hurts in the following cases:

                • Excessive fluid in the joint capsule or Baker's cyst. With such a cyst, a tumor forms behind and in front of the knee. Sometimes the symptoms of the disease do not make themselves felt and only appear as swelling. Accompanied by painful sensations under the knee and in the calf muscles.
                • Meniscus cyst. Accumulation of fluid in the meniscus. It manifests itself as painful sensations in the leg area below the knee. Small cysts may not be noticeable on examination.
                • Damage to the fatty tissue surrounding the joint - Hoffa's disease. It is often confused with a meniscus cyst. Occurs due to hormonal imbalance or arthrosis. Symptoms may include nagging pain in the joint, swelling and limited movement.
                • According to statistics, 50% of people over 40 years old suffer pain under the knee, thinking that these are just age-related changes. This attitude in the future leads to a whole bunch of diseases and complicates the treatment process. Fortunately, modern medicine has stepped far forward and copes well with timely diagnosed leg diseases, which allows us to answer the question of why the bone below the knee hurts. It is necessary to remember that the most important thing for a quality and fulfilling life is health.

                  In 2002, blood calcium was at the lower limit. So I paid more attention to treating the spine.

                  Since 2004, the condition began to worsen: weakness, bone pain; There was uncertainty and unsteadiness when walking, frequent dizziness and headaches; in 2005, an X-ray revealed a deformity of the Th8 vertebra.

                  More than 4 years ago, painful cramps in the leg muscles appeared - they go along the posterior-lateral surface of the thigh and go down below the knee (now daily).

                  general blood analysis-

                  normal T-criterion is more than -1 SD. stiffness is between -1 and 2.5, osteoporosis is less than -2.5. Treatment with bisphosphonade, calcitonin, calcium supplements and vitamin D is recommended (from the conclusion). The doctor who referred for this examination In the card I wrote a diagnosis of Osteoporosis, prescribed Airtal 1 tablet-2 r, 10 days, Neurobion 1 tablet per day for a month and Alpha D3 Teva 1.0 1 tablet for 3 months, when I asked about the reasons for this, she said that the consequences were after childbirth (although I took it throughout the pregnancy and feeding vitamins, and I always try to eat well). At the same time, I began to have tingling sensations in my legs, arms (a little less often) and back, my legs periodically go numb, my back is slightly pulled. I went, just in case, with all the tests to another rheumatologist - she said that everything was generally normal with me and there was no osteoporosis, despite the results of densitometry, and she prescribed me afobazole (a month), 5 injections of neurorubin (3.0) and arcoxia again On the same day, I visited an endocrinologist; she confirmed osteoporosis and prescribed an ultrasound of the thyroid gland.

                  conclusion - the formation of a paratracheal lymph node/adenoma in the projection of the beds of the right lower parathyroid gland? The doctor who performed the ultrasound said that if it is an adenoma, then this very osteoporosis may be due to it.

                  PARATHORMONE-39.56 (norm - 15-65), ATk to TG 18.03 (norm less than 115), ATk TPO-18.46 (norm less than 34) TSH-3.32 (norm 0.27-4.20 ) ANA-not ready, IONIZED CALCIUM-1.06 (normal 1.12-1.32), POTASSIUM-3.6 (normal 3.5-5.5) SODIUM-133 (normal 135-156)

                  Which treatment, out of the ones prescribed above, will suit me? So far, out of everything, I’ve only given 2 injections of Neurorubin and taken 3 tablets of Airtal, I’m trying to endure, because I’m afraid to swallow everything, while the doctors make different diagnoses ((I WILL BE VERY, VERY GRATEFUL IF YOU PAY ATTENTION, YOU WILL HELP WITH ADVICE. THANK YOU.
