My knees are so red and inflamed. I have never seen my knees like this. Walking is excruciating! I was at a birthday party my daughter’s friend just turned 7. There was a trampoline and I thought I could jump for just a few minutes. Not even 10 minutes and now my knees are huge! Burning hot to the touch. I haven’t ever flared in my knees this badly. I can barely move around. I’m only 35. I’m so scared to lose my ability to walk one day. When my ankles become inflamed… when my synovial joints are so swollen I limp around. The knees just feel so much worse. Can I put ice? Heat? Why is this happening I feel so utterly stupid and helpless.
