I have burning pain in my knee in middle of the night. Dr says arthritis. Anyone experience similiar symptoms?

Shе hаѕ diagnosed mе аnd prescribed naproxin. Mу knee іѕ slightly sore during thе workday bυt wakes mе out a sound sleep four tο five hrs аftеr I drop οff. I injured thе knee many years ago, bυt dіd nοt hаνе аnу brеаkѕ οnlу brusing. mοѕt οf whаt I read seems related tο RA аnd dοеѕ nοt seem tο apply tο mе. I аm asking іf anyone experiences thіѕ type οf pain аnd bееn given thе same аnѕwеrѕ? Heat аnd/οr сοld compresses dο nοt seem tο hеlр much.

    it very well could be arthritis. sometimes it expresses itself as burning pain, especially in the joints. knee joints are especially prone to arthritis so this doesnt surprise me at all. does the naproxen help you at all? if it does, it may be inflammation in the knee joint caused by arthritis. if hot and cold doesnt help, then maybe try other options such as in the hot tub or a hot bath. otherwise try asking your doctor for a prescription for celebrex, which is great for arthritis, and is stronger than naproxen. good luck!

    IF YOU HAD A BOOD TEST FOR ARTHRITIS AND DOCTOR CONFURMED IT THROUGH BLOOD TEST,BECAUSE YOU DON’T KNOW UNTIL BLOOD TEST IS DONE, THEY CAN’T JUST LOOK AT YOU AND SAY THIS, IF THEY DID, GET ANOTHER OPIONION. I HEARD RED YEAST RICE, IT’S AND HERB IS HELPFUL FOR PAIN AS WELL AS RICE YOU MAKE AND EAT. WEIGHT MANAGMENT IS A MUST!
