Weird

[serene]

Woke up yesterday morning with some stiffness and pain in my knee -- not my normal bursitis stuff, something new.

Rather than getting better, it's gotten worse, to the point where I couldn't really sleep last night, and today I can't walk very well without terrible pain.

Took aspirin, have an ice pack on the knee, and am completely baffled.

Don't know if the same thing will work for you, but Tylenol PM and a pillow between my legs works for me. In fact, most of my pain problems have gone away entirely since I started sleeping on memory foam and started using memory foam pillows.

If you sleep on your back rather than your side, it might help to put the pillows under your knees, so that they're arched up while you sleep. I can sometimes rest that way (although my respiratory system won't allow me to sleep that way.)

I find that the Tylenol PM both relieves the pain and allows me to relax enough to get to sleep until the pain abates. When I wake up it's usually gone if I was able to get into a restful position.

Hope you can find something helpful in all that.
