Pain In The Knee. Difficulty In Stepping. Injury?
Hello, I was playing basketball yesterday and I had two games. The first game everything was fine. The second game I tweaked my left ankle but it was severe. Then the muscle right above the inside of my knee starting locking up almost like a cramp but it was different and painful. It s still really sore today when I do stepping motions. What happened?

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
It seems that you have sprained your ankle. Bone injury is not likely. Such injuries are often associated with recurrent muscle spasms. Adequate rest and icing the area will be helpful. You need to avoid weight bearing on the foot.
