Felling tightness in Knee (not pain)

2017-05-05 08:22:29
Hi Sir/Madam, I am a regular runner, I run at least 4 KM a day regularly. Recently I feel a kind of strain/tightness in my right knee. I tend to twist and create a cracking sound(many times in a day) which gives me a relief. some times I feel this strain on the muscles behind my knee and leg as well.
