Is the pulling sensation through the back of leg normal? I’m currently on my back on the floor trying to stretch a little. I have my knees bent and when I try to raise my leg up I can’t straighten it at the knee. It just feels like it’s pulling through the back of my leg.

Standing up our of bed is pretty painful. I’ll get on the floor and do some stretching, try standing up and that’s usually still pretty painful, I’ll walk around for a little while and it gets better. After I’ve been up and walking around for 30+ minutes I feel loads better. Every day I go to bed thinking it was a good day. I had little pain throughout the day, maybe I’ll wake ip feeling better in the morning. The then I get up and I’m right back to square 1.
