Knee Disorders: inner knee pain???mcl maybe?


inner knee pain???mcl maybe?im 18 and havnt dont sports in about 2 years but i recently started going to the gym and running again. my upper inner left knee hurts i can still jog but any sprinting or cutting really hurts. when i put pressure on it with my fingers it hurts really bad. could i have just strained my knee or something or could it be serious? what should i do?

I dunno. I have the same issue only its on the bottom of my right knee cap. I think its cuz my brother kicked me so hard that he damaged it. Im not sure but mine hurts when im active too. and it hurts when i put pressure on it. Its been this way for like 5 months now and i still havent seen the doctor. just go to the doctor and get an x-ray. then you will know whats up. hope your injury isnt permanent!=) (p.s. Im only 12!)

A two-year old ligament tear would probably not hurt when you press on it (unless you tore it farther recently); you would more likely notice "looseness" in the joint (knee giving way). If you do not remember any particular injury, it could just be a strain. This kind of injury usually doesn't need emergency treatment. Stay off of it and ice it for a few days. If it doesn't go away, then - bummer - see a doctor. Could be a torn miniscus or something else loose in the joint.
