Hello and thank you for addressing your concern.

We truly understand your concern with regard to your current condition. However, our views would only reflect based on the description that you have brought forth into the forum.

More importantly, according to your statement, we believe a thorough clerking, investigation and examination needs to be done first in order to clearly understand what we are facing at the moment. Correspondingly, the given information by you might only touch the surface of an underlying problem.

More often than not, knee pain is commonly associated with individuals at their prime age. It can either be related to their daily work routine, sports or other physical activities. To know the real cause, or whether it is truly triggered by the meniscus/patellar region or nearby muscle/tendon/ligament, a more comprehensive examination from an orthopaedic or general clinic must be performed first.

For the time being, I would advise you to

  • decrease your daily exercise routine to the minimum
  • avoid any activities that could elicit the same pain or stress to your knee
  • and get help at the nearby clinic or hospital as soon as possible
