Knee/leg pain ??

[weerosebud]

Hi ya,

My knee never locks but does not feel as supportive in comparison with my other leg. I have noticed recently that if I cross my legs or even when I lift my leg in over the sill of the car when getting in, it makes a weird crackling sound from the medial side. I'm assuming it probably makes this noise at other times but I've only really heard it doing certain things.
Yes the pain seems more towards the back of the knee on the medial side. There is a general discomfort now though within my knee and I feel like the pain is also effecting the lower part of my shin.
I'm just hoping now that with my next phyiso and docs appointment that they refer me for an MRI as its really testing my patience

There is no pain when running straight but if I make any sudden change in direction or crouch (to touch a cone) i can feel it. Also at my last session of physio the leg press really brought on the pain.

I have my next physio appointment next week and then a doctors appointment the week after so I will update this after those.

That's good news you're starting to get the ball rolling with the MRI scans etc. This has been going-on too long now. It may be ACL/PCL incomplete tear. It will be good when you finally find out what it is.
