I've been getting these weird pain behind my knee. It's not too painful, but it's painful enough to slow me down when i'm running. It hurts especially when running and going up the stairs. I figured it would go away by itself sooner or later, but it didn't... it's been about 2 weeks now. It feels like something's poking me in the bone when i'm walking. It may be a bone pain, but who knows what it'll be.

Cut back on your exercise and see if this helps. you probably are over using the muscles and that's why you're going through so much pain. Sometimes the body is crying for a break , that's why pain appears.
I recommend you see a chiropractor as soon as possible. I've enclosed a link where you can find a chiropractor in your area.

I always answer people' knee questions on here as I just had my 13th surgery so I am a seasoned knee injury veteran. And I will tell you what I tell everyone else. See an orthopedic (bone and joint) doctor. He/she will discuss your symptoms with you and take xrays and an mri scan. The xrays will probably show nothing, but the mri will give you your answers. The knee is a very complicated joint with 4 main ligaments and tons of cartilage including the meniscus. People on yahoo answers will give you their best guess and say "I had the same thing!" but you will never know without getting images of your knee taken. I am very knowledgeable on the subject, but I wouldn't begin to tell you what is going on without looking at images of your knee. So please, see a doctor and get it checked out....the earlier the better....you do not want to be like me and have 13 surgeries and huge scars...trust me. (My best guess is probably ligament damage...pain when going up stairs is classic ACL damage.) Good luck to you.

A DVT could be for your calf, no longer behind your knee. If you had a DVT, your calf could be swollen beecause the blood could no longer be equipped to depart by way of the vein. It could harm plenty for those who squeeezed the calf. You are a ways too younger for a DVT. Please speak for your medical professional approximately getting counselling to your anxiousness. you can be a lot happier.
