Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The pain in the knee and the leg that you are having could be due to an inflammation in the knee or an injury to the internal knee joint structures. This needs investigations like MRI scan for proper diagnosis.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
