I'm having knee pain, Anyone know what's going on?

Question

When I bend my knee too far, there is like excruciating pain.

But when my leg is straight, even when I walk, it really doesn't hurt.

I really didn't have any kind of injury that caused this pain.

Does this sound similar to anyone? Anyone think they might know whats up?

And I see the doctor Monday - so, if you have experienced this, what is something my doctor may do?

Answer 1

It could be Osteoarthritis. It is the deterioration of the joints and cartillage which would cause bones to grind on bones which would explain the excrutiating pain.
