Why do I have pain, swelling, and stiffness in my knee?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am a 27-year-old overweight male. I have had severe knee pain, inflammation, and stiffness for two days. I cannot keep my leg straight due to the pain; it is also severe when bending my knee. Previously, I have used tablet Ibuprofen for my knee pain. Also, recently I have been diagnosed with diabetes and arthritis.

Kindly advise.

Answered by Dr. Rajesh Jain

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern. I suggest the below treatment plan for five days:

  1. Tablet Emanzen-D (Diclofenac and Serratiopeptidase) twice daily.
  2. Tablet Pan 40 (Pantoprazole) once daily on an empty stomach.
Consult a specialist doctor, talk to him or her, and take the medicines with their consent. Also, I suggest you avoid pain killers for long term and reduce your weight through diet and exercise. It will also help control diabetes. I hope this helps.

Thank you.
