hip and knee pain is common in teenaged females according to my doctor, but you should still see yours. It could be from puberty believe it or not. It happened to me. When a teenaged girl's hips begin to widen rapidly during puberty, it can cause the femur to shift slightly, but it is nothing major. This can cause joint pain in the hip or kneecap.

You should still see your doctor.

A hot or cold compress should help, too. A warm bath usually helps me as well.

You need to go see your doctor so he can check it out to be sure nothing is wrong.
