Knee pain and pressure

[avock26]

Does anyone suffer from knee pain and pressure behind the knee? Been 6 weeks and I’m getting a bit worried.

Hi yes I always suffer from painful knees especially when I’ve been driving a lot, when rested for a couple of days it eases. They are painful when I do the stairs though. I dont quite know what you mean behind the knee as mine are always on top of both knees. If you are worried then maybe its worth going back to your GP for a check up. 😉 Good Luck!

As always the safest bet is to see your GP. Nobody can diagnose online but I have similar symptoms. My own is due to a Baker's cyst. The knee can feel tight and painful when bending. Sometimes I develope a small lump behind my knee. However there are many other conditions which could explain your symptoms. Hopefully your GP can give you some answers.

Hi there, may I suggest if you have had the problem for 6 weeks with no relief it's maybe time to see your GP. I hope you find out what's wrong and maybe get some meds to help with your pain. Which I'm sure must be really dragging you down by now

I get fluid build up behind my knee now and again with a lot of pressure. I do a bit of resting as well as walking and find it will disperse. I still work part time so have no choice but to walk on it. We each find our own way of dealing with it as you will too. Take care xxxx
