At the back of my right knee, yes. But I'm on T3 only. I think it's a hypo symptom.

And painful! It comes and goes, but I have not idea what the triggers are. It just seems haphazard.

Wow! Why always the right knee, I wonder...

Mine is taking a day off today, but yesterday it was painful. I have no idea what brings it on, or what eases it.

I have found mine has improved since supplementing Vit B complex and B12.

I also take magnesium, but didn't really notice any change in ligaments with that
