My left leg pulsates heat from behind the knee, radiates up and down the leg. I also have stabbing pain in my left leg. Severe hip pain and right knee pain. Gets worse at night. I do have 3 old compression fractures and 3 damaged disks in my back. Is this related?
Hi, I value your concern regarding the symptoms. I have gone through your symptoms, and in my opinion your symptoms indicate towards an infection of the joint, you may need surgery, but before that you need to get your blood investigations done to see if the counts are normal, do not wait consult early, because infection can sometimes do irreversible damage. Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow-up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.
