What muscles and tendons cause interior knee pain?

What muscles and tendons cause interior knee pain due to tightness? My inner knee always flares up with pain but its not my patella tendon. It is just to the interior side of the patella tendon, and it hurts when I squat and jump, or fully flex my leg completely straight. I have been trying to figure this out for over a year. No doctor has been able to help. Stretch seems to help, but I its only temporary, then comes back.

Chosen Answer:

I don’t know the names for them either but it sounds like this group of tendons are tight for you and this should help you get rid of that pain:
Knees:
While sitting place both hands around your leg just behind the knee and with your fingers find the 4 big ligaments that are there, two for the inside hand and two for the outside hand, one on the inside and one about an inch up on the outside of your leg. Press into all 4 of them at the same time and hold the pressure there. Relax. Wait 30 seconds. Then slowly side your leg out to a full extension, release the pressure but rest your leg there for another 30 seconds.
For best results relax your body first by taking a deep breath and exhaling then remain this relaxed.

pain in abdomen when sitting down its more like muscle pain could it be from working out?

its more like muscle pain could it be from working out and pulled a muscle or something it gotten better today.
also when i turn my neck it also hurts

Chosen Answer:

Sounds like an abdomin and thoracic strain. It could be a result of heavy lifting.
When you say working out, what activity do you mean? Running, weight lifting, swimming, biking, martial arts, climbing, etc?

If you have sharp pain, it could be a hernia issue and may want to get it checked out by the doctor for diagnostic testing.

Good luck.

What is the difference between a pulled muscle and just being sore?

April 9, 2013 Muscie Pain Q&A

I play soccer and thankfully have never pulled anything but both of my quad muscles have been in some pain. I cant tell if their just sore or if i might have pulled them. When i run they are both fine but when i go to kick the ball the leg i kick with hurts. My coach thinks im just sore but i dont know because i have never had pain like this when being sore. Can any one tell me the difference between the two (pain wise)

Chosen Answer:

In a pulled muscle there is soreness because usually there is moderate damage to nerve fibers that surround the muscles that is pulled. This requires “downtime” or resting of that muscle to allow it to heal. Which usually takes as little as a few days to a few weeks- depending how bad it is. Muscle soreness results from overall breakdown in the integrity of tissue in a specific group of muscles. This is normal when a muscle is over used. Body builders continue to break down and rebuild their muscles. Each time layers of cell are duplicated adding muscle mass over the course of time.

So there are multiple levels of muscle damage starting with typical soreness by exertion, moderate damage which is referred to as a pull, and the highest level of damage is a tear which is varying degrees of a damage that can require surgery to repair. In this case its usually the connecting cartilage that is damaged that is more fibrous than muscle and does not repair itself as easily as muscle does. Cartilage is also the structure that fastens muscle to bone.

How can you cure a pulled quad muscle?

March 23, 2013 Muscie Pain Q&A
4 comments

I pulled my quad muscle while doing track and it hurts whenever I run. The first meet is next Saturday so it needs to be better by then. I’ve been icing it for 20 minutes then putting a heating pad on it for 20 minutes, and so on. I’ve been elevating it on a pillow and everything. If I keep doing this do you think it would get better by the end of the weekend? Also, should I put IcyHot on it?

Chosen Answer:

The icy hot would only help with symptomatic pain. The muscle will heal on it’s own. Soft tissue takes time, but heal relatively quick.

You can’t *cure* a pulled muscle,.. you just have to give it time without over-use of it. So the best thing you can do is to not exercise or use it other than for what you have to do (ie: daily movement, walking etc..) This gives it a proper environment to heal. If you run on a pulled muscle it will take much longer to heal.

So in essence time and rest.

Take care,

Why do I have pain in both of my lower rib cages?

March 21, 2013 Muscie Pain Q&A
2 comments

For some reason, every once in a while I get pain in my lower rib cages for some reason. It hurts when i talk, or when I try to flex my abdominal muscles. The days before theses pains i usually go through a lot of exercise such as running, could this be the cause? Should i go to the doctor or will it go away on its own?

Chosen Answer:

The pain could be from costochondritis– an injury to the rib cartilage. Patients often come into the ER with it. You can get it in the cartilage in the sternum or the sides of your ribs. Can happen during lifting something. If this is the cause the pain and injury will get better but try not to reinjure it. Try a rib belt if you can get ahold of one to see if the rib support helps.

What can I do to make muscle pain go away?

January 27, 2013 Muscie Pain Q&A

I am a competitive swimmer and I need to be at swim practice everyday. My muscles have been sore for about 2 weeks and I am getting very irritated, It hurts all over. I am talking head toes and everything in between. How can I make the pain go away with out taking a break from swimming?

Chosen Answer:

People who exercise and train a LOT take very good care of their muscles for the critical hour or two right after they stop exercising. They apply cold compresses to the tendon areas they expect to be most painful, and they immediately take an anti-inflamatory such as Advil or even Naproxen (12 hours). Anti-oxidant vitamins are also used such as Vitamin A,C,E, so take a multi-vitamin along, and bring some extra chewable vitamin C tablets along with you.

If you’ve been sore for two weeks, and it’s not going away, talk to your doctor. A short course of a corticosteroid may reduce the inflamation quickly and long enough for your body to heal up. This is not the same as taking “anabolic steroids.”

Finally, even though you’re swimming, you can still tape up the area right below your kneecap, and your ankles, part of your elbow, etc… to help support your muscle movements and protect your tendons from tears. If sports tape doesn’t stick, use duct tape, and overlap it.

Do you ride a bus to the swimming pool? If so, make sure you really stretch out, especially your hips, before you swim. And take another stretch before riding home, and after… Keep limber.

When you get home, three times a week, take an epsom salts bath. It really works.

Good luck!

Can a muscle or nerve in the neck cause headache?

December 22, 2012 Muscie Pain Q&A
1 comment

I had a horrible one sided headache last week. I still have the pain there. I had all the symptoms of a migraine except that along with it I had neck pain. Now it has settled right where the base of the skull meets the neck. It hurts when I move side to side and sends a shooting pain up my head.

My massage therapist did say that my clavical muscle on that side was very tight. Could a nerve or muscle cause pain in this spot or a headache?

Chosen Answer:

yes. and a massage therapist would probably know. also maybe a chiropractor might help, or drinking water to stay hydrated. it’s possible yyou just slept on it wrong…

I played badminto and my racket arm aches. How do i strech that muscle?

December 15, 2012 Muscie Pain Q&A
1 comment

I have been trying the “pull the arm across the chest” move and the “touch the middle of your back” one but neither of them seem to strech the correct muscle that hurts.

Is there a strech specifically for the muscle in pain?

I’m playing again tonight ya see…

Thanks

I am about 29 weeks pregnant and I have pain at the top of my stomach. Anyone know what it could be?

December 9, 2012 Muscie Pain Q&A

I have pain at the top of my stomach, it is kind of a burning sensation (kind of like heart burn). I don’t have a clue what it could be. I have had it for a few weeks now, but just in the past week it actually hurts to run my fingers across the area. Does anyone have a clue what it could be? I know it isn’t contractions because it isn’t a muscle tightening pain and it doesn’t come and go, it’s constant and has become quite painful in the past 2 weeks. Thank!

Chosen Answer:

:S I have no idea. I think you should go see a doctor very soon… like tomorrow.
