can knee problems cause back problems

yes i can but usually it wouldn't. If this happens apply an ice or heat pack for as longs as you feel necessary. If symptoms persist after 4-7 days you should see a doctor.

That would depend on the actual problem with the knee and the nerves that travel though it. If the "bad" knee changes your gate(the way you walk, it can upset the way weight is transferred to your lower back.

Not only is this a risk, but nerve damage and fluid accumulation or fluid loss can also cause serious health problems.
