What might cause knee numbness and pain to worsen when driving in traffic?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I read your query and can understand your concern.

Without knowing anything other than the pain that bothers you while driving in traffic, I can only tell you what I would do if you were my patient. Based on age, it may be arthritis. I cannot rule out meniscus or ligamentous injury without knowing a history of trauma. If you were my patient, I would perform a chiropractic examination and recommend chiropractic adjustments. Since you are not my patient, I recommend you return to a local chiropractor for treatment and proper care. Once they perform an examination, your chiropractor may want to order X-rays to confirm a diagnosis. Still, I suspect they will recommend a trial of care to see how you respond to supervision. Until then, ice may help with some of your pain. Ensure you ice for 20 minutes and then take it off for at least 40 minutes. Repeat this as needed for pain relief until you can see a chiropractor.

Thank you and take care.
