Popping knees w/some pain & grinding @ the topswhen i walk. good xrays & minimal pain, but popping constant. would knee braces help? i do pt. i'm 25.

Yes: Most likely the popping is due to a condition call patella chondromalacia.Braces will help is the patellas are tracking laterally.Only specials x-ray will demostrate if you have that codition.Pt will help also.
