See a doc: See an orthopedic or sports medicine doctor to get checked out and have any necessary tests run. Your GP is always a good place to start

Knee pain: can be caused by several things, only one of which is trauma to the knees. Please see your doctor.Physical therapy or minor surgery may take care of this but you need to know the cause. Peace and good health. Sometimes we have a trauma we don't even remember but it catches up w/us later.
