I have been diagnosed with water on the knee. My symptoms are swelling knees that hurt whenever they want to. One day the will swell up like oranges and the next they will barely even hurt. I have not found a cause that makes them swell up from one day to the next. If you go to the doctor they will do an ex-ray on your knees and be able to tell you if you have water on the knee, and if you have decent insurance they may even drain it out for you, I wasn't so lucky.

Oh you have the same disease with me more than 10 years ago.This disease is called rheumatism or a specific term gout disease..In your body the purine or uric acid is more than normal.The normal uric acid in the blood of male is 7.0 as a maximum and for female is 60
Please test your blood.If I have 8.0 my joint will be swollen and very pain if I move itThe swollen joint is an evidence that the uric acid accumulated in that joint such as ankles or knees
so much and it become cristalized so you feel so hurt.There no water in that swollen knees .The doctor said to me that the knees has an inner infection.Besides that our body will be fever and our sleep will be disturbed by our pain. like in the knees there are many needles..So my doctor gave me an antibiotic injection or pills.
Now I have no more pain because I am always on a diet for preventing so much uric acid in my blood .My diet is like this :
1)Everyday I drink at least 1.50 litre of fresh water and fresh milk and no other drink because the other type of drinks contain high uric acid such as alcoholic drinks,cocacola,wine,
pepsi cola,tea,coffee,beer,apple juice and any other canned drinks etc
2)do not eat fruits that contain more purine such as durian,pi
ne apples, etc
3)do not eat vegetables that contain more purine such as cabbage,cauliflower,kangkung or promoea reptans beans,pea,belinjo etc
4)do not eat inner animal organs or bowels such as heart,
liver,brains,intestine,lung, etc
Until now I can manage my gout disease..Gout disease is caused by the weakness in a gland that should produce cortison..In the normal body,cortison can make to clean the above normal purine or uric acid in our blood through urinating..It is better if you consult to a doctor..
That is all I hope you can cure your illness as soon as possible .

i'm not a doc or anything like it, but i suggest you take some asprin or motrin (unless you have active ulcers or on any blood thinners or have problems with NSAID type drugs. it sounds like they are inflammed. this will help for right now, but the doctor can blah blah blah blah, and costs lots of money- you get the picture. It could be that your "padding" in the knee is worn out. no medicine will help that for long term.

whilst you get thursty it's larger to consume a melon or drink a few common juice as a smoker i uncover i am getting dehrydrated and if I consume fruit I can manage extra cigarettes than I can with water If you wish to have vigor drink espresso together with your fruit I suppose this might be more healthy. otherwize I suppose you will have to see a general practitioner
