A member asked:
What can cause pain in the knee when bending to sit down or applying pressure to put on a shoe?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A number of causes: Most likely its a meniscal lesion, or a chondral/ligament lesion. At your age, it could be a knee cap problem or something called osteochondritis (although you might be old for it). You should see your orthopod.
