I am a retired gent of 61 who walks about 5 to 7 kms every day. Over past few yrs I have developed a tight uncomfortable pain on the outer right knee, just to the right of the kneecap. A hard bony lump has developed over time as well, in the painful area. It looks quite exaggerated when compared with the left knee which is normal, with no pain. About 3 yrs ago I did have problem with what felt like a painful tightness behind the same knee, which became quite uncomfortable when going down on my haunches. It now seems to have moved to the ouside of the knee as described. The pain is not unbearable yet but is becoming more uncomfortable with time. I played a huge amount of squash when I was younger but not for the past 12 years. May have something to do with the problem.
Would be most grateful for your input.
