Knee crepitus can be from multiple causes. Painless crepitus can be ignored. So, I won't advice for crepitus knee treatment as such.. Crepitus from knee cap problems can be cured with hip and knee strengthening. Crepitus from cartilage irregularities or loose pieces often need minor keyhole surgery. Painful crepitus from arthritis is initially treated with physical therapy and surgery when therapy stops helping.

Knee crepitus with pain or swelling is due to tissue injury causing inflammation around knee joint.
Acupuncture helps in treating inflammation almost immediately, anti inflammatory points, body balancing points, Moxibustion, cupping, diet and exercise recommendations helps in knee crepitus recovery quickly.

Crepitus, or the cracking and popping sound that sometimes happens when you move your knee, is usually harmless. However, if the crepitus is accompanied by pain, swelling, or instability, it may be a sign of a more serious problem and you should see a doctor for crepitus treatment if required and sugested by the doctor.

There are various reasons for noise in the knee. Common reason is Patella crepitus which can be because of Chondromalacia. Discoid Meniscus or meniscus tears can cause sounds. Loose bodies in the knee can also cause sound.

Answered by Dr. Pramod Bhor

dealing with crepitus in the knee can be managed using many approaches. On the one hand, regular low-impact exercises and maintaining a healthy weight can assist in strengthening the muscles that support your knee. Physical therapy may help to enhance the joint stability and flexibility. Other recommendations might include avoiding activities that make the noise worse and to use good joint protection techniques. If crepitus is persistent or accompanied by pain anyway swelling it’s really important to consider a professional health care provider for the evaluation and designing of specific treatment procedures.

I am a 25 year old male who's had back surgery. I have numbness and burning pain in my legs and I'm not getting any relief.

Male | 25

It is not good to fee­l numbness and burning pain in the legs afte­r back surgery. These fe­elings happen because­ the nerves ge­t irritated. This could happen because­ of swelling or pressure on the­ nerves. It is important to tell your surge­on about these fee­lings. The surgeon may give you me­dicine or suggest you to do exe­rcises to feel be­tter.

Good afternoon, I have been having waist pain frequently in the past few weeks. Yesterday I was having muscle pull consistently for several hours intermittently

Male | 53

It appears that you have recently been having some lower back pain as well as muscle pulls. These could be due to things like bad posture, overworking yourself or even just pulling a muscle while making a sudden move. To reduce your discomfort, try doing some gentle stretches, using warm packs, and resting when necessary.

I am a 26 year old female I’ve been having muscle pain just below my clavicle bone accompanied with shoulder and neck pain. Also,a pressure builds up in my neck that causes frequent neck cracking. The muscle below my right clavicle is dipped in and causes a lot of pain trying to sit up properly. All the pressure on the neck caused a nymph node behind my right ear.

Female | 26

You might have muscle pain coupled with pressure on the neck and the shoulder region. Muscles are likely to be tensed or strained bringing about such signs. The issue of muscle dropping below your clavicle and squeezing your neck could result from sitting or standing with drooping shoulders. You can ease them by keeping the right body posture always, engaging in mild stretches that won’t hurt much, and using warm towels on those affected spots.
