Hello! I was severly depressed last year, and didn't get out of bed for about six months. During this time, my knee joints became swollen, painful and stiff, with some loss of muscle mass around the knees and in the legs. (I was severly depressed!)
Is it posssible that being bedridden for so long caused this problem in the knees, or is this condtion arthritis?
Have you seen joint swelling and pain in some bedridden patients? I'm very curious and i'm in a lot of pain.
---- Thank you ----
