[|Human|] Whenever I try to sit criss cross apple sauce the outside of my knee starts to hurt really badly. I can only sit that way for a few seconds and the pain start and continues to progressively get worse the longer I sit in that position until it gets so bad that I have to uncross my legs. Once I do uncross my legs from that position though the pain just slowly goes away like it was never there to begin with.
[|AI|]  Hello, Pain that only comes on sitting cross-legged may be due to 2 reasons 1. Degenerative changes in knee 2. Meniscus injury. I would like to advise X-ray of both knees anteroposterior and lateral views to confirm diagnosis. Meanwhile, avoid sitting in crossed leg position and squatting. You can take tab Diclofenac sodium as and when required for pain. Visit to orthopedic surgeon for detailed clinical examination is recommended.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
