A member asked:
Im having sharp pain on my knee for over a week after a sudden fall, especially when bending and hyperextending. do i need to seek a doctor for this?

Knee pain: I would recommend that your follow up with a doctor considering you had a fall and now you have persistent pain. It could be as simple as a sprain or bursitis to a possible meniscal tear.
