injured right knee

[paininknee]

My knee twisted when I rolled over in bed. Now I can't go up or down stairs, nor can I put my weight on it while it is bent. What could have I have injured, and what would be the best knee brace for it? i think it's the PCL from websites I've seen.

Like always I was rushing for my office stuffing the breakfast on the way and shockingly I dashed my car into the truck. I could bear the minor injuries but the two fractures one on my leg and another on hip bone made me howl. A few humane people around took me to the Lilavati Hospital. I had lost the hope to walk anymore but the energy of the doctors made me forget even my relentless pain. I never knew that Lilavati hospital has the best orthopedic surgeon in India but my experience made me realize this. Not only the meticulous treatment drives me to the conclusion but post treatment behavior like general calls to know my recovery and special flowers made me believe that the doctor of Lilavati hospital is the best orthopedic surgeon in India.

You may want to see an orthopedic surgeon. The brace,can help prevent your knee from twisting & causing pain. You could have a torn meniscus. I twisted mine and a MRI showed a torn medial meniscus...I had out patient surgery but still have some pain. Atleast I can go up and down stairs and able to walk without a limp. I wear a petellar strap to prevent me from twisting my knee. Buy it at your pharmacy, sporting goods, K-mart. Ortho docs will charge you 3 times more. Just see your doctor.
