[@terryharrell7597]

I love the way you explain things on how to help my knees

[@marciaolson4878]

Thanks Doc! Yep, I’ve overdone it. Looking forward to what I can do to get back where I was. Your vids and knowledge are invaluable!

[@rolandovivar6864]

Inactivity is my cause in the popliteal area. Too much lying or sitting with right leg in a straight position. Your explanation was comprehensive. Ty!

[@hannahfox4304]

Awesome. Good info. Thank you.

[@missprofe]

I appreciate your videos. I was following another physical therapist specialist on You Tube, and the recommended exercises actually made my pain and discomfort worse. Ten minutes following performing the exercises recommended by you brought me instantaneous relief. A question: How does one relieve back of knee/posterior knee pain? Would you do a video on this? Or direct me to the recommended video/videos. Thank you!

[@saralewis2173]

Thank you so much. Sounds like my ligaments are unhappy at the back of my knee as well as at the inner knee. Something is catching randomly and intermittently when I'm walking or on stairs. I clearly need to get help. And then to do your 28-day program. Thank you so much.

[@epmanualphysicaltherapy]

Any tips for how to help resolve residual pain at the injection point site from a popliteal nerve block?

[@traciebecker6669]

I have terrible knee arthritis, can't straighten or bend it fully. I have Bakers Cyst symptoms. The surgeon said my knee, leg is not strong enough to do surgery. I have Charcot Marie Tooth peripheral nerve disease. I am in constant pain for the past 3 years.

[@PascasiaRweyemamu-ls2yf]

Good presentation Thank you I had TKR five months ago. Mow I am having pain at the back of my knee. Is it from overdoing exercises or from the operation?

[@epmanualphysicaltherapy]

Hi Pascasica, We are so sorry to hear that you've been experiencing in the back of your knee after your TKR. It's common for many people to still have pain after a TKR. There are various reasons why you might be having the pain but we wouldn't be able to say for certain without a proper evaluation. Too much intensity could cause it and we would recommend offloading the knee joint until the pain has subsided. We have a playlist for knee replacement help. You can access it here: “Failed Knee Replacement Help” kzbin.info/aero/PLJVIPiFvv1maC3n6M0ksF5F17DPDcI98a This playlist isn't just for failed knee replacement. It can also help anyone who has had TKR and has experienced pain from time to time. We wish you all the best in your road to recovery. We'd love to hear how you are doing as you progress.🙌 Please take care!

Im taekwondo athlete and loves hiking/trail runner. I feel pain behind my knees from two weeks till now.😢 I can't kick properly and if i sit ling it's difficult to stand up its very pain😢.

[@blakemoore666]

Can it be caused by femoral nerve pinching or sciatica from the spine?

[@epmanualphysicaltherapy]

Glad you liked it

[@adolfthebeast5228]

Hey man I can’t catch a break it seems I overstretched my hamstring and it hurts right in the center of the back of my knee I did the stretch you do for your knee with the band where it goes straight up and I over did it any tips?

[@trace-mark]

Thank you. Very good.

[@rosesmith6208]

my back of knee only hurts when I bend it tight like when pedaling a bike, i can hike and ride a semi recumbant bike and so how do I deal with it, can you get scar tissue, I was trying to ride my new mountain bike and it hurt back of knee with i bend my leg fully to pedal from top to bottom of the rotation. I hurt this leg several years ago and many of the pain and problems resolved except I cannot bend my leg fully to pedal

[@mamat792]

How difficult is it to identify which you are experiencing. Mine does not really effect me walking. If I bend my knees (curl) up in bed, get into the car (right leg), kneel on stair (the pressure is terrible).

[@nikhilchaudhary7865]

What did u do

[@moiraduplessis2900]

Same

[@CarmenGarcia-bu3so]

Me too😢

[@C-LOS4250]

Me too. I blame it on curling my legs while sleeping and bending legs while sitting at work

[@FourEyedSniper]

I was sitting down with my legs slightly on the floor crossed at the ankle not thighs when out nowhere when i uncrossed my ankles something pulled

[@kausarjaffry3699]

I had an epidural in one side of the hip. While I was getting it, it felt burning in my leg to my foot. After that I started to have all those symptoms you talked about. What's my issue. My Dr. Is not answering my calls or voice mails:((

[@nupuruils]

What if I have mild meniscus injury with grade 1 acl sprain + grade 1 chondromalacia - and now developed swelling at back of the knee which hurts during bending or straightening, more than it hurts during standing/walking. Can a knee cap help this? Also, I dont have DVT but some varicosities like perforator incompetence. Is that the reason? I've seen both types of specialists and doctors arent telling me nothing! I have taken anti coagulant and anti platelets from November to March. I would say I noticed the back of the knee swelling only in April.

[@AFrick-f3m]

The back of my knee is intense when i extend my leg, get up from a seated position, or take stairs. Theres no swelling or stiffness, no popping noise. Can this go away on its own? Im thinking of buying s knee brace

[@susanaflores8224]

Is lifting weights over doing with a meniscus injury or baker cyst?

[@krpurple2678]

I couldn't even walk with a bakers cyst. The pain was unbearable when I put weight on it

[@misbahhabib8866]

Doctor, I’ve been strengthening my glutes since a month now, and my knee pain is gone( I’ve had it for20 years) but now my butt hurts all the time. What should I do?

[@epmanualphysicaltherapy]

Hey @misbahhabib8866, that's great that you've got rid of your knee pain of 20 years!!! WOOHOOOO!!!! It may be that you're sore in your glute muscles since you may have had weakness there for so long. It could also be that you need to reduce the intensity that you're working at in your glute strengthening. In other words, back off a bit and see if your glutes feel better. You'll have to keep up your glute strength for the long term to make sure your knees stay healthy the rest of your life!

[@misbahhabib8866]

Ok thanks. Its just that I’m so relieved and happy with my knees, the last thing I want to do is stop the glutes exercise. I just do simple squeezes (10 for 10 seconds each) twice a day. Even my back has straightened… I had developed a stoop. I’m 64 btw.

[@sawnose4775]

I had some pain in back of knee for a few weeks, then the other day the leg buckled, just gave out. Now I can't really use that leg, am walking very slowly without bending leg. What's up?
