Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why I can't sleep, which greatly affects my work efficiency. My friend recommended that I go to the neurology department for a check-up. What could be the reason for the pain in my kneecap?Doctor's answer:
First, knee pain is directly related to cold exposure. During the painful period, increase movement and avoid overexertion. You can wear an elbow support. If there is no trauma, you can apply local cold compresses. You can soak your feet for half an hour every day. Then, go to the hospital and make an appointment with the orthopedics department. Let the doctor perform a manual examination to check if there are any injuries to the ligaments and menisci, and examine whether there is any fluid accumulation in the joint cavity. If necessary, have a knee MRI. Then, based on the detailed examination results, proceed with the next step of treatment.
