Constant knee pain
I've recently started getting pain in my left knee. It hurts slightly all the time but hurts a lot when I bend it or put pressure on it. Also when it's bent for a while as I'm laying or sitting it starts to hurt and has a shocking feeling. I'm not an athlete and haven't been running lately so I didn't injure it. Should I see a doctor?
