I play Golf and for many years have experienced low intensity pain on the lateral side of my left knee after playing to much golf. Recently I have found that I cannot fully squat without modest pain in the same place on the lateral side of my left knee. After re-extending my leg the pain quickly subsides. I seem to be able to do all other exercises including walking, running and cycling without any pain? I went to the doctors and he simply offered me pain killers. However I suspect this is a meniscus or ligament injury and want to see if I can undertake physio to help recovery? I also want to understand if I should be avoiding any forms of exercise / movements? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
