knee keeps popping out

[mrhtbd]

When I extend my left leg to step out, sometimes my knee pops out. I am careful not to put pressure on it until it's aligned again, but it is quite worrisome.
I thought it's a product of weak hamstrings and thought it's time for the straight-legged deadlifts, but wanted to get others' opinion first.
NOTE: I have never had a knee injury.

Sure you didnt tear a ligament? Could be weak Quads(especially the tear drop) or like you said hamstring.

Sounds like the way mine did when I had a torn ligament. I've had several knee surgerys (5) 2 replacements and mine did the same thing when I had torn my acl? (both times) Just a guess though bro if it's unstable and has pain I would get it checked for sure before it hurt it bad..

My son had that happen he goes in for torn maniscus surgery next week. May or may not be the same but it sounds it. Get an MRI.
