Default knee hurts....... (dun know if im in the right forum)

hey guys, i had this problem/pain one month ago and i can't seem to solve it...2 yrs ago i injured my knee while playing street soccer. But only 7 months ago i had an ACL recon done using hamstring tendons on my left knee. After that surgery, i am quite active in doin physiotherapy. i had a good 6 months physio sessions with no problem at all. But during my last physio last session, i put in much much effort and went too far in doin my physio and i think i strain too much coz b4 the last physio session i had a gymas practice session in that week. then the following day, i had pain in which i had difficulty in walking and climbing stairs. i feel that my knee is weak and the pain sort-of make it a bit unstable while walking .The pain is on the tibia, where is near my scar, which the hamstring tendon is been harvested. when i straighten/stretch my knee, it will hurt too. btw there is no swelling.its been a month and it still hurts now, but the pain is getting lesser. .But when i went to see my specialist who operate my knee. he told me that it is normal for ppl to experience pain and he doesn't has any clue y there is pain there. i ask him whether the screw might be the problem, he told me that the screw is bio-absorable and shouldn't be a problem. then he do a check on my knee and said that my hamstring tendon is fine... to sum it up, there is pain in my tibia whenever i apply pressure on my knee. if my hamstring tendon are strain how long does it take to recover? wonder if i should request a mri? any suggestions? btw im 21 if age does matter...
thanz in advance...

I've had this same op. It was years ago and the knee is fine now, the pins and screws were stainless steel so still there.
I used to get the odd pain, one thing I did was to stop mashing big gears and learn to spin little ones. Trust the surgeon if he tells you things are still OK and just avoid straining it.
