What Causes Pain In My Knee And Shin?
My right knee and bottom of my shin right above my foot hurt when I bend it or straighten. Its been going on fo about 2 months and has gotten worse. There is also a soft bump on the right side of my bottom shin. It doesn t hurt to touch it though. It just bothers me when I bend it or straighten it. What s wrong with me? I feel like it could. Be serious. I m 19 and am scared it could be bad. Getting checked out tomorrow but I could use some incite.
