Knee pain: Knee pain can be external, involving the muscles and ligaments around your knee but not the knee joint itself. Patellar or patellar-femoral tendinitis are frequent causes of knee pain as well as iliotibial band inflammation. Quadriceps and hamstring tightness or other muscular issues can manifest with knee pain. Finally, knee pain can be referred to by hip problems. This mandates investigation.

Soft tissues: Knee pain with leg extension in a twenties female suggests patello-femoral syndrome, a condition where the knee cap moves up and down irregularly. Orthopedists can diagnose. One suggestion is to study the brighton citeria to learn if ligament laxity of joint hypermobility syndrome is a factor.
