A member asked:
I'm 23 and am all of a sudden getting poor circulation in my right leg with pain in the back of my knee that radiates through my thigh what could this?

Unlikely: Unless you have a very rare disease, it's unlikely that a 23 year old's symptoms come from poor circulation. It's important because the treatment for circulation deficiency and other causes of pain is entirely different. Chondromalacia patella or related conditions is much more likely.
