Knee Joint Problem? PLEASE HELP US?My mom's been having trouble with her knee lately; as in the past few days. she says that it keeps popping really badly and now its absolutely killing her and she can hardly stand up. She says it feels like she popped it out of joint and now its like pinching a nerve or something.
Can anybody please, please help? what is going on?
and what can be done about it?

It's impossible to tell without inspecting it, so she should defnitely see a doctor or qualified physiotherapist, but one possible diagnosis is bursitis. The bursa is a fluid-filled sac that helps prevent friction in joints.
See the source below for more information.
In the meantime, provided she has taken it before with no problems, ibuprofen or co-codamol will help with the pain and reduce the swelling, and the basic measures of pressure (a tube bandage), rest and ice (e.g. a bag of frozen peas for 5-10 minutes every hour or so) should help - if it's swollen she should rest with her knee above the level of her heart.
