Several.: Meniscus (medial). Plica. Medial compartment osteo. Joint "mouse, " ie. Costochrondral fragment. Others. This may need more than a dcotors h&p. Imaging studies are probably needed.

Knee problems: Knee pain and stiffness can come from many conditions/ injuries, but with the sensation you describe as "buckling" i would suggest you see a physician to check for ligament or meniscus problems. To start treatment at home begin with rice, and make sure you continue working on your quad strength (like you did after your acl surgery). Hope this helps!
