Arthritis?: You need to see your doctor and get your knee checked and xrayed .It may be due to arthritis at your age.There can be other causes related to trauma, popliteal cyst or imglammation, so if it is bothering you need to have it examined and xrayed.

Knee Pains: Knee pains can be an early sign of "wear and tear" arthritis affecting the knee joints, or early rheumatoid arthritis. If you are carrying more weight around these days, this can affect your knees. Do you work out at the gym? Engage in squatting a lot ( gardening, etc)? Joint "flare ios" may respond to a short dose of Aspirin or inuprofen - if you can take these, but otherwise see a rheumatologis.

Under your knee caps: Need more information. Could be "chondramalacia patella" , or just osteoarthritis. Please use your computer to look up the chrodramalacia patella and see if it fits your symptoms.
