Knee Osteoarthritis, but pain in back of knee and in calf.
I'm in the UK, am 63, and was initially diagnosed with sciatica and given some exercises to do. It didn't improve, so went back, had an x-ray and the found moderate osteoarthritis in my right knee.
The weird thing is though, as stated above, the pain is mainly behind my knee and in my calf.
At my latest physio appointment,they got me to do various stretches, and said it was nothing to do with my hamstring which I thought it might have been.
As I'm diabetic,I'm wondering if it could be neuropathy?
They were at a bit of a loss as to what it might be, and I was given some exercises to do.
Has anyone had anything similar and if so,what was it! Thanks in advance.
