Hey all. New here. I have a daily knee-swelling & cracking problem and the cold weather up here in New England makes it worse. On my left knee, I tore my ACL and MCL while skiing. On my right knee, it never hurt enough to go to a doctor, but I'm pretty sure I tore my MCL there, too. I was supposed to have surgeory, never did, but the problem went on before I tore those ligaments. What happens is my knees seem to swell up daily and the only thing that relieves the pressure is twisting my knee to make it crack, most likely the worst thing to do, but otherwise, the swelling gets very uncomfortable. I am 24, otherwise healthy, but it happens on my hands, too and I suspect arthritis. I am not a big fan of anti-inflammatories or any unnatural drug. Does anyone know what the problem could be or does anyone know of any natural remedies that could solve or help my condition??
Thanks all.
Thanks all.
