I don't have a fucking clue what this is does it sound familiar to any of you?
I'm 33 and about 40 pounds overweight which I know doesn't help the situation. I just wanna put a name to this.

Do you have a foam roller or some kind of ball? You can also use your elbow, but it's not as effective.
Try massaging the insertions above and around the knee, especially the vastus medialis on inside of your leg. It's gonna fucking hurt.
