I would go ahead and make an appointment with your primary care physician. He may decide to do further testing or refer you to someone else but with insurance rules, he will need to do this. Try taking ibuprofen according to the directions (if you are not allergic) to reduce inflamation and keep it elevated when sitting. Good luck

My first 2 infants had been simply lower than a yr aside. I requested if I would have a VBAC with #two and my OB mentioned ALL VBACs had been towards sanatorium coverage. She did not point out the truth that they had been so near in combination. Make definite it's not effectively an issue of coverage at your sanatorium, and whether it is, uncover yet another sanatorium. I'm telling you, if you happen to desire your long run infants to be born vaginally, have a VBAC with this one. I had my 3rd child at yet another sanatorium however simply went with the go with the flow and did not even ask approximately a ordinary delivery. I obtained a horrible illness that took nine weeks to solve. I'm pregnant with my fourth and had my middle set on a ordinary delivery and I'm even using to a sanatorium an hour away to peer a institution of midwives who paintings with an OB, or even the midwives instructed me that there is no method I'll ever be allowed to have a ordinary delivery after this many c-sections. I will have to have had a vaginal with my moment child. I overlooked my hazard. :( By the best way, probably the most midwives, who's an older lady who has added many infants, instructed me that the few VBAC deliveries she'd attended that brought on ruptures did not motive bleeding for the reason that scar tissue does not have very well blood deliver. She mentioned that the ladies who ruptured WITHOUT any earlier uterine scarring had been those who bled. Makes you believe, huh?

It sounds like you may have a foreign object in your knee. I know it sounds funny but it happens or you could have some bone spurs in your knee that sounds like it could be that too. I would get to the doctors as soon as you can, because if it is either one of those things you will make it worse by not getting it treated. The bone spurs grind together and causes popping of the socket of the knee. I would go right away it may be expensive but it will get more expensive the longer you wait. Good luck and please let me know how you make out.

Well first of all if you find anything out from your doc let me know. I am assuming it's from the added weight (only 10 pounds) of my pregnancy in my 5th month. I have the same issue though. I was taking glucosamine with condroitin (spelling?) and msm. I used to do a lot of bike riding on a daily basis and my knees would bother me, but that stuff helped me out a lot. I asked my doc if it was all right during pregnancy and he said he would not suggest it so i stopped taking it. Now i just avoid climbing stairs unless i have to. Let me know if you come up with anything or as i said if your doc gives you suggestions of anything that does not consist of taking something like a pill. subject line to use would be yahoo questions cutemissthing@yahoo.com. thanks and good luck.

If it continues to hurt for another two to three days you will need to see a doctor. Also, if the pain wakes you from sleep or keeps you from going to sleep you will need to see a doctor. Otherwise, if it seems to be getting better, just live with it. If you go to the doctor, they will give you pain meds and either prescribe physical therapy or surgery. Good LUck!!

It depends on how long you can bare the pain. Your best bet is to get to ER right away. The sooner you go, will be the sooner that your pain will subside.

Just go. The doctor's office will deal with the insurance. They are used to it.

You should go now. You could be making things worse by waiting.
