View allI've been dealing with this recurring pain for years and seen multiple doctors but no one has been able to fix it properly. Every 3-4 months I get these horrible flare-ups where I can't move at all due to severe pain in my right hip, lower back, and what feels like nerve compression making me want to cut my leg off. Painkillers are the only thing that helps me function. I'm considering surgery but worried if it'll actually give me permanent relief or not

I'm really worried about my knee. I hurt it while walking and now I can't seem to stand up straight on just one knee. The pain is intense, like a shock every time I try to walk after the injury. I did see an orthopedist who just twisted my leg a bit and I felt better for a while, but once I got home, the pain came back even worse. It's like a sharp jerk in my knee whenever I move. I'm freaking out about whether this is serious or if I might even need surgery. The thing is, I'm not in a good financial position and I'm really scared about what this means for my life and career. Could you please tell me what might be going on?
The recurring shock-like pain and instability in your knee suggest a possible ligament sprain or meniscal injury, which may not necessarily require surgery; however, to determine the extent of the injury and appropriate treatment, consider undergoing an MRI scan and consulting an orthopedic specialist again, who may recommend physical therapy, bracing, or pain management options to alleviate your symptoms and improve knee function
