Hi all, I am looking for some advice on my knee problem. The red circle in the image shows where the issue is. It started out when running only, but now it has worsened over about 4/5 months and is now uncomfortable even when walking. Originally it was a sharp pain, but now it is hard to describe what it feels like other than just generally uncomfortable. Its fine to the touch, and doesn't look different to the other knee. It is also very bad going downhill.
I went to the physiotherapist a while ago, but it was a bit inconclusive and they suggested IT band issues, but after a few months of trying the glute exercises they recommended nothing has changed. I am beginning to think it could be something else as photos online look as though IT band pain might be further round the knee?
Not really sure what to do next, or what the issue might be? Does anyone have any advice?
