Asking For Self, Male 39, oman
I have polio in 1 leg. 6 years ago I fell down and had a knee injury in the same knee. after 2 years of different treatments I was ok but it's been 6 months i suddenly started feeling pressure on my knee, later it turned in pain that made it very difficult for me to walk now the pain has reached till my foot , heel and below the ankle and the muscles behind. I am doing strengthening exercises, did dry needling, Physiotherapies in between. but it's the same . the pain is constant sometimes less and sometimes more .
xray of the knee ?
Get a MRI of knee sometimes there is Collateral ligament injury with Meniscus also
you need proper examination to know exact cause of pain then investigate according to the the examination
