Problem with squat type exercises
Hi all,
Recently when I've been exercising I've noticed that my knees do something funny. Basically when I bend them to around 90+ degrees something from my upper leg sort of "pops over" something from the lower leg part of the joint. This happens at the back of my knee at the outside of both legs. Looking at pictures of knees I reckon it's somewhere around the collateral ligament
There is no pain involved with this, and I think it's probably been happeneing for years without me really paying attention to it - it's just with doing squats it happens every time and it's kinda uncomfortable. Does anyone else get this happening in their knees? It's easy to check by placing your fingers on the outside of the back of the knee joint and then bend your knee to nearly double.
If anyone has any ideas what could be happening I'd appreciate it.
