I am experiencing a sharp stabbing pain in the medial area of my L knee. It feels weak when I step, like it s going to give out, and is tender to touch. I didn t have specific injury but have been doing a lot of walking on concrete. I have also tried different shoes but the pain remains. What could this be?
Your symptoms suggest that you are suffering from hamstring spasm and pes-anserine bursitis.it occurs due to excessive strain on knee that may be due to your walking on hard concrete surface. Rest, icing local application of non-irritant analgesic gel, analgesic such as ibuprofen and muscle relaxant will give instantly relief. When pain decreases, start hamstring stretching exercises to strengthen hamstring muscles. Hope this helps. Hope this answers your question.
