knee problems for years. any ideas?

[mumbles09]

I'm 17, and I've had knee pain in my right knee as long as I can remember. it is usually happens after standing/walking for long periods of time.

Ive been to my doctor and to an orthopedic doctor, and they don't know what it is.

I've gone through many xrays, and the only thing they found was a small, thin line going across my kneecap, but they said that it was nothing to worry about.


I'm also duckfooted (out-toed), I think this may have something to do with it because my right foot goes out at a greater angle when I walk than my left foot. I think it stresses out my knee, but noone believes me.

help?

I dont know if you would call it a sport, but I'm in marching band lol. We march and run...a lot.

My mom has been looking for a podiatrist, she just hasn't found one in our area yet.

I've actually never thought about it maybe being tendonitis, but I'll bring it up next time I go get my physical.

Thanks =)

First, are you athletic?  Do you do sports?  It could be overuse or tendonitis.

Also, have you tried a foot doctor being that you mentioned the problem with your feet.  My husband has that problem and he has orthodics in his shoes to help.  Try the podiatrist, it may give you some answers.
