Answers:
If it hurts when you bend your knee cap it "might" be illiotibial band syndrome!. I had it because my hamstrings were weak!. Basically you have some sort of tendon that rubs against the side of your knee cap but, when you have weak hamstrings it causes that tendon to inflate (I don't know the technical stuff) and causes severe pain when bending!. Best thing to do is just stretch out your hamstrings way more than usual!. Also, you bicycle contributes to this pain!. Just wiki illiotibial band syndrome and you'll find out more!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
