Pain behind knee

Asked for Female, 33 Years

Since the past few weeks, I am experiencing pain and stiffness behind my right knee/thigh. Its mild, but certain movements like squatting down or bending the knee fully are painful and difficult. I'm into aerobics, zumba and the occasional walk/run. I enjoy very good health overall. The other leg is absolutely fine. Please advise.
