Severe leg and knee pain

2018-04-07 02:06:58
I've been having severe pain below my knee near the joint, on the outer part of my leg with no relief. The pain comes and will last about a week but I can wear a brace and it goes away for a while. I've also noticed the muscle below that knee is much smaller by almost an inch. The pain is constant and goes almost down to my foot. This started about 2 months ago with pain in my leg and a pins and needle feeling in my foot. I don't remember hurting my knee. Any ideas what could be causing this
