Unfortunately, it is: pretty common to start to feel some discomfort associated with degenerative joint changes by middle age, especially if a person has been active/active in sports. Self-help tips include reducing stress by optimizing weight (if overweight), strengthen the supporting quadriceps muscles, icing before and after aggravating activity. Squeaking isn't terribly worrying. May try OTC NSAIDs, but not daily.
