Posterior Knee Pain
For about a month or so I've been experiencing posterior knee pain, more medially than laterally. It hurts most when walking (when i straighten the leg out to take the next step with the achy leg- making it difficult to walk normally). Walking up stairs does not cause pain, nor does it hurt when i sit/rest, and actually seems to relieve the pain when bending the knee.
It is not tender to touch, and i don't think it's swollen or warmer than the other knee.
I did not injure my knee recently.
