: hello; for the past few weeks I have been experiencing a pain in my
: knee, it is just to the outside of the patella. It is a
: very sharp pain, like hitting a raw nerve, or like an electrical shock.
: it happens totally at random. It can happen when I am walking,
: sitting, sleeping, etc. When the pain is not occurring, my knee feels
: completely normal. When it happens, it usually happens every few
: seconds or minutes, then stops for several hours. I am not aware of
: any injury or unusual stress to that area. Any ideas?
