تم تقييم هذه الإجابة:
Im a 16 year old male, and id say Im overweight, not too much though, i have a belly and noticeable breasts. So for the past 3 years (I always assumed that it would get better) i had pain in my knee when i open my left leg, and exclusively left, never had this pain in my right leg. Whenever i try to open my leg from a fully closed position, a rumble can be felt and a crackle can be heard midway opening in the knee joint. This crackle is the pain and the pain is in the front of the joint. The only way i can describe this pain is like a hitting a hammer right in to the joint.
