This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
I may be able to recommend a remedy to help your knee pain but before I do so I must know your age and weight and also how this pain started. Is the knee swollen ?
What drugs you are using now ?
Do not in the meanwhile damage your knee further by jogging and carrying weights.

stop taking calc carb if it is not helping. only listen to advice about ruta from one who knows about it as a homeopathic remedy (ruta helps tendons, ligaments, bones heal) - I do not understand what you mean about 'from outside'!??
the remedies suggested were suggested because they could help your knee pain - what other information are you asking for ? what they are made from? what the potencies do?
if you are not sure about 1M then stick to 30c - 30c or lower will help a physical problem and is ok for self-administration - if a 1M is required and you take a 30c instead you may (or may not) have to take the remedy more frequently.
I suggest you try calc fluor 9 or 10x for your problem. You should also stop jogging and only do gentle exercise.
also get yourself checked out with an osteopath or chiropractor to make sure you have no spinal or other joint imbalances.

Hello . Thanx for the reply.
as per the doctor's analysis.. there is friction related to knee cap.. possibility of leakage of synovial fluid ( commonly known as knee grease ) .
Is there any medicine in homeopathy for this kind of symptom.
From "from outside injury" i meant problem caused by external hurt - like fallen down , accident etc,, and not internal damage - one man told that RUTA is for external injuries.... and not for internal damages etc

I wonder if my favourite remedy Arnica 30c in the wet dose can help Adam's problem with the synovial fluid accumulation in his knee which should, I believe, be swollen.
I have used it in a similar case where the knee was swollen and Arnica helped to drain the fluid accumulation and I believe that it can help.
I used the 30c 3 times daily and the swelling was reduced in a few days.
It is obvious of course that Adam must rest his knee to help it to recover.

Hi joe - yes I believe arnica could help adam with his knee.
this can be taken with the CALC FLUOR.
ADAM - ignore the 'internal/external' description, this is not of a lot of help to you I feel, as external injuries can cause internal damage......
ruta is also used, for example, for overexertion of eyes!

dear patient,
according to your symptoms,and as you told that doctors has said that there has been leakage of fluid of the knee,according to my suggestion,the only medicine that is much like to your symptoms is 'bryonia" ,the medicine should be taken in "200 potency" after 6 hours,4 times.take the medicine and you will see the benefits of classical homeopathy.

Madam & Sirs , Thanx for the replies...
It was "small effusion is seen in all synovial reflections" in MRI report - i m sorry, i misquoted it as "leakage" when i just tried to simplify the language. ( effusion - very very very slow coming out).
Doctor dint rule out the possibility of roughness of kneecap .
Are there certian associated symptoms - so that it can be diagnosed?
