Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I am a female with a height of five feet five inches. I have pain in my knees and my knee braces made it worse. Currently, I am using an inhaler.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Please mention when you started to have this knee pain. Please mention whether it is present on one of your knees or both knees. Please mention whether you have any knee swelling or redness around your knees. Please mention whether you had any injury in your knees. Please mention whether you have any pain in other joints. If you have pain only in one knee without any swelling or redness and without a history of injury to the knees, then I suggest you take analgesics for pain. Take tablet Ultracet (Paracetamol with Tramadol) once daily. You can apply TRP gel (Diclofenac, Linseed oil, Menthol, and Methyl salicylate) over the knees to reduce your pain.

Differential diagnosis

You seem to have arthralgia or arthritis.

Probable diagnosis

You have arthralgia.

Treatment plan

Take tablet Ultracet (Paracetamol with Tramadol) and TRP gel (Diclofenac, Linseed oil, Menthol, and Methyl salicylate).

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
