Suggest Treatment For Severe Knee Pain
I have a pain in my knee that extends to my hip. It only hurts when applying small amounts of pressure or when I m not bearing my full weight. Walking is fine and even running 5 miles is fine, no pain. It s just when I m not applying a lot of weight.

Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns.
With such presentations in my clinic, I would first Reassure you because your problem is transient as It is not obvious with heavy activities.Then I will ask you to do plain X- ray for your knee and your hip to exclude any bony problem.
Finally I will prescribe for you pain medication when needed .
