When I kneel on my right knee I get a sudden sharp burning pain just below my knee on the outside of my knee where my knee meets my shin. I do not have pain in this knee or the area just below it to the right at any other times. The pain is very painful and the burning stays for quite a while.
Hi... Your right knee pain us due to bursae irritation below the knee.it could have swollen up slightly due to many reasons and may not be eliciting any symptoms as it might not be that bad to get irritated by the tendon press... If I were you. I would like to ice up frequently. Avoid kneeling down for a while as that might irritate the bursae more leading to more discomfort and pain... If possible would like to get taping done to reduce the load on patellar tendon... Gently knead the front thigh muscles and calf muscles to reduce the compression of patella on to the underlying bones . Do some rehab exercises like clamshell... Bridging...side lying single leg lift... Step ups etc. Stretch my front thigh muscles.calf muscles.back thigh muscles and glute muscles... If I have Anti-inflammatory tabs prescribed to me previously. I will have them... Hope this is helpful for you. Kindly revert in case you need any further clarification....
