• Knee pain?

The inner part of my knee hurts and the back of my knees hurts as well. They also are throbbing. It appeared with a black bruise near the inner part of my left knee. Now it’s red and they hurt when walking.

Your symptoms could indicate a possible injury or condition such as a medial collateral ligament (MCL) injury, meniscus tear, or bursitis. The presence of a bruise and redness suggests inflammation or trauma. It’s important to consult a healthcare professional for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

Most likely you have chondromalacia patellae. Google this term and read about it. Do the exercises that are recommended. Take Advil, 2 tablets with each meal for 2 weeks to see if it helps. Avoid squats, lunges, stair climbing as this will aggravate your problem.
Hope it helps!!

Without knowing how this happened I really can't be specific in my answer. If this occurred after going camping you might want to get tested for Lyme's disease. A blood test will tell you if you have that. If it occurred after vigorous exercise(s) it could be bad tendonitis or a ruptured hamstring tendon. You need to get assessed for that by an orthopedic doctor or a chiropractor.

Get it checked out. Bruises from a bump... not that big a deal... BUT, if you have throbbing and it turns red, it is most likely a more serious injury, (like something got torn) or a possible infection.
