I tried to push my office chair w/ my left foot and wretched my left knee in the process... and I want to
IN the past, when I would move and hurt something ..... it hurt, then it was done.. no residual pains..... but this hurts now to walk on... and bend... and take stairs...
yeeeeeeOuch!!
Maybe you knee had locked and when you pushed the chair its torn something...I had that with my arm i had sat with my arm bent my son was playing around and made a silly comment, I went to playfully smack him and the pain in my elbow as i straightned my arm was agony, i was like it for days...my son thought he had done it and was forever in my debt..i guess only time will tell...
it hurts deep. under the cap... I know what I have done, I think.... irritated the lining that is our problem.. synovial
oh oh! I never had that happen. Hope you feel better soon!If there is any way to ice your knee, do so. And stop using your foot to push back your chair!

Babs there is cartiledge under there also...use ice on the swelling but if the pain doesn't improve call your drthanks.. I will.Babs, you're not alone...we've all done something like that. Sunday, I turned and reached out at the same time and did something to my back. Better now but I gimped around for a day. Sure hope it's better, ice is good. LindyBabs: In regard to your knee pain, it is possible you have a tear in the miniscus of your knee. People dealing with RA are more prone to tears in the miniscus. It is possible for those not dealing with RA to have a tear in their miniscus. Usually comes across as a sharp and sudden unexplainable pain and most times they heal on their own.
This isn't a dx just another possible reason for your pain. *Gentle Hugs*
Hope whatever the problem is will take care of itself.
well.. I didn't know about the cartilage or the miniscus.... I will baby it a bit and see how we manage... I wish I'd brought my collapsible cane!!
