Posteromedial knee pain

[bailie991]

The current problem I am suffering from is a painful clicking like sensation on the postero medial aspect of my knee. This is not a problem when walking. It seems only to occur at a faster paced jog/sprinting as well as during standing hamstring curls. However no problem when doing hmastring curls in prone and no excessive pain on hamstring stretch. If i had to localise the sensation myself it would be to the group of tendons passing into the medial aspect of the tibia just proximal to their insetion.

In the build up to this problem I was recovering from a hamstring strain around midportion of the thigh and so had been resting from my usual physical activity..which is usually soccer training and matches around 4-5 times a week. The problem first occured as I began jogging again. The first 20 minute jog was painfree however the problem occured on the 2nd and 3rd sessions.

Any ideas on what the problem could be would be much appreciated..if you require any more information I'll try and supply it. Thanks in advance

Hi

It looks like hamstring insertion problem or trigger points along the muscles,
but u need properly get your pelvis and back assessed.

get well

You sound like you need a physio to check your gracilis, sartorius and your semitendinosis muscles these all attach near where you have described and you can get some pes anserinas bursitis which is directly under where these muscles attach. These need to be addressed by the correct stretches.

You also need to get someone to do a meniscus test for the clicking (impossible to do on the internet!!!)

In the meantime do some slow power mini squats to maintain your muscle strength and limit running to 20 min in a straight line ( ie not soccer training)

You may be risking more ongoing problems if you dont get it checked out thoroughly

Good luck
