Pain in the back of knee

[bechyni]

So for the past day or two I've had a weird pain in the back of both of my knees and thighs. No idea what's causing it, it just sort of started hurting. Both areas seem to hurt regardless if I'm standing up or sitting down, although sometimes when I am standing the pain does seem to lessen. Any ideas as to what might be going on?

Edit: Pain isn't constant just seems go come and go and stays for periods of an hour or two.

Overstretched your hamstrings. Were you exercising or something?

While you were sleeping I injected several ricin pellets into your legs. Sorry chap, but you gonna die.









Did you do anything physical recently where you could have put some strain on those muscles? Slap some Icy Hot on that shit if you did. If it doesn't go away go to the doctor's.

[bechyni]

Nope, only thing I've done is help move a few boxes (they weighed less than 20lbs)

[bechyni]

Yeah was going to give it until the 26th then if the pain was still there going to head to the doctors.

If they were on the ground and you had to bend over to pick em up and you didn't bend your knees when picking em up that's directly on hamstrings. IcyHot for a day, then do hamstring stretches the next day.

I think I've been dealing with the same pain. Is the pain in the center of the back of your knee, or is it off to one side? Whatever's wrong, I did it a few months ago and it hasn't gone away yet, stretching or not.

[bechyni]

Well mine is in the back of the knee in the center but it's not only there, the pain runs up the back of my thigh. I have been taking hydrocodone for pain (the pain was so bad last night I couldn't sit,lay or stand without having terrible pain) which allowed me to sleep until it wore off this morning.

Have you been doing any adventuring recently?

[Shagoa]

Awesome, yeah, sounds like you need to rest your hamstring like other people said.

[Kooldachio]

Be more descriptive about the pain. Everyone is just assuming its a muscle. Is it sharp or dull pain? If it's sharp, could be a pinched nerve acting up, especially around the knee area. Try and be much more aware of actions that may cause the pain. That's weird that standing actually makes the hamstring hurt less. Standing will stretch it out much more than sitting.

You sure it isn't an arrow?

[bechyni]

Nah I finished my adventuring long ago lol, had the arrow removed awhile too. Btw I look like this: http://www.gwcdn.com/albums/images/4...7f5e005dbb.jpg not that starter gear bullshit!

It's sharp pains that usually stay there until I finally get comfortable. It feels as though the pain is subsiding but I have been taking pain meds every six hours to deal with it. Not going to take anymore and see what happens from there. If the shit still hurts like it does then going to the doctor tomorrow.

[Brill Weave]

Doctor for you young man.

This got me more then it should have.

I think it's a hamstring my hubs just got a shot in the knee because his hamstrings didn't feel like working all he did was stretch. I would go see a doctor

[Mazmaz]

Wow they have shots for shitty hamstrings now?
Modern science man.
