Pain only when i step a certain way in tendon on outside of leg with weakness like i'm going to stretch leg too far. felt a slight pop there 2 mth ago?

Where in leg?: Sounds like you strained a tendon as u have noted and it has not yet healed.Not sure where in the 'leg' you are describing. "leg" in ortho terms means below your knee... Not the thigh.Be more specific in your location of your pain and i'll venture a guess... Sounds like around your knee and thus could be a knee ligament... Or ankle?

See an : Orthopedist. Perhaps you did tear it. The point is you have pain that is not going away. Pain is a bodys way of telling you something is wrong. So go find out so that you can return to normal activity.
