I have been having problems with my R knee and they ve done an MRI and found no irregularities .. Pain, swelling and a quick sharp pain that makes my leg buckle.. also I have a feeling of bruising on the outside of that same leg.... I m wondering if it could be hip related ?
Welcome to Chat Doctor I have gone through your query and understand your concern. Yes hip pain can be felt in the knee. You can take analgesic such as ibuprofen for pain relief. Furthermore, I advise you to undergo vitamin D test as vitamin D deficiency can because of such pains. If found low you can take its supplements. You can discuss with your doctor about it. Hope your query get answered. If you have any clarification then don't hesitate to write to us. I will be happy to help you. Wishing you a good health. Take care.
