WHAT CAUSES PAIN IN THE BACK OF THE KNEE?
Pain in the back of the knee can be caused by many things. A baker’s cyst in the joint capsule, a torn meniscus, and arthritis can all contribute to pain behind the knee. But the most common causes are issues with the muscles (the hamstrings, calves, and popliteus), the tendons (of the same muscles just mentioned) and the posterior joint capsule (the structure that “houses” the joint and its fluid).

WHY DO I HAVE PAIN BEHIND MY KNEE?
Most posterior knee pain is an inflammatory response to strain. If there’s something wrong with the joint surfaces (arthritis or meniscus pain) you can feel it in the back of your knee or if the tendons of the muscles are inflamed (tendinitis) then you could feel it as well.

    I’m really glad you went over foam rolling the posterior leg on this video because soft tissue mobilization can be so helpful for getting rid of stiffness and pain behind the knee. For people that maybe have a harder time getting on the ground I also like performing this on a box so they can sit with a lacrosse ball placing pressure through their hamstrings for release! Thanks for the informative video!
  • @Angiehere-1

    For massage, my pt had me use a rolling pin because the foam roll was too painful. For calf raise, he had me sit with 2# weight on my knee (steadied by my hands), alternating leg after each set.
