What Do Pain And Tenderness In The Knees Indicate?

I have pain (aching) in my knee with tenderness at the ligament. It s hot to the touch and hurts when I walk and if I move in some directions. It started with severe pain when I put my weight on my leg and I had a cortisone shot about a week ago and it didn t help at all.
