Knee Pain

[tonymcclellan]

Well about two weeks ago after a nice set of squats and lunges, I noticed some pain in my knee. Its not excruciating, but it is painful when I try to straighten or apply pressure to stand. It went away after a couple days, but last week I just did squats and skipped lunges to give some extra rest. Well it began hurting again, and still hurts now. Im gonna make a doctors appointment to get it checked out, but I was wondering if anybody had something similar? I havent applied ice or anything and have no prior knee problems. ??

I damaged my knee almost a year ago on leg press. the left knee. now when I straighten it sometimes, it pops and often there is mild pain associated with the pop (so its not simply a normal joint pop...rather the patella seems to snag something, then break free of it).

I was stupid and didn't go to the doctor. Oddly, squats seem to help it. I don't htink our injuries are of the same nature.
