Teenager With Knee Pain. Knee Lean Inwards And Make Crunch Noise. What It Could Be?
I am 16years old and my knees have been hurting for probably over a year i went to the hospital and the doctor had actually popped back in my knee cap.. both knees lean inwards and stays and i can move my knee cap up, down, and side ways. they always make a clicking noise and crunch noise, do you have a possibility of what it could be?

I think it is chondromalacia of the patella. I would recommend you to get MRI of the knee joint, if it shows softening of knee arthritis then i would suggest you to start taking tablet Etoricoxib 90 mg per day. Also i would suggest you to take Dicerin tablet 50 mg per day.
