Thank-you for your response. I have an update. Almost all of my pain and symptoms I described previously are 90% gone. However I did discover something else by accident, which occurred as I was putting on the knee support sleeve which I had been wearing. It occurred when I put the brace on one time, and realising it was on crooked, attempted to straighter it by turning the brace outwards (clockwise). Being that the brace is tight, this meant that it 'gripped' my knee-cap, the patella, on my right knee, and turned it to the right.

This caused, and continues to cause, a lot of pain on the inside of my right knee when I repeat this movement. e.g. When sitting in a chair with my leg out straight, or straighter than a 90 degree angle, if I hold my knee-cap with two hands, and twist or rotate my hands clockwise (moving the knee-cap towards the 'outside' of my knee), I experience sharp pain on the inside of my knee.

Would this be indicative of anything in particular? Your help is greatly appreciated. I am trying to get money from my parents so that I can see a sports injury physio next week.


Other than this, I am able to complete all movements and sports pain free. There is no mobility restriction, just a small area of very mild pain when I touch my calf to my hamstring. Valgus forces on the outside of the knee don't cause me pain. Just when I 'slide' my knee-cap outwards, and the mild pain when touching hamstring to calf as mentioned.

Help greatly appreciated.
