[|Human|] Help I am a 27 year old female who is fairly active. While I have always had problems with my knees especially my right knee recently. I ve never really gone to the doctor and had an actual diagnosis that anything is wrong yet though. But I was laying on my stomach on a lawn chair outside and when I stood up to walk inside my knee started hurting. Not like the usual pain it was very foreign and very weird. I looked down at my knee and it looked fine until I went to bend it. When I bend it something protrudes from my knee cap and it looks whitish. The pain isn t as bad now I can walk on it but it is really bothering me to what it could be.
[|AI|]  Hi, Thank you for providing the brief history of you. A thorough musculoskeletal assessment is advised with MRI of knee. As the pain in the knee is persisting a thorough assessment is needed. Due to ligament injuries within the knee joint, such types of pain can be expected. On a longer run, this ligament injuries if left untreated leads to early OA knee, that is the degenerative changes in the knee joint. Also, undergoing an MRI of the knee should help understand the soft tissues better and then you have to undergo physical therapy for 2-3 weeks post which you can follow the exercises at home itself. Any prevention in the early stages provides good results. In my clinical experience, early detection helps in early time and late detection cases responds slowly. RegardsJay In Chat Doctor.
