Soccer Question?!
Question: Okay, so I play soccer every day, and lately, my knees have been aching. I'll some times bend to pick something up, and I'll suddenly feel a sharp pain in my knees, the worst is my left. It's on and off, sometimes they're fine, but at one time I couldn't walk with my left leg because it hurt so much to bend it. Please help, I may not be able to play my beloved soccer, or worse, I may shatter my knee cap and might be able to play soccer, but my knees will always be week.Help!!

The good news....I don't think you have to stop playing soccer!
My best advice is to tell your doctor about the pain. They will probably order a MRI to view all of the parts of your knee to be sure everything is alright. (an MRI is similar to an x-ray but takes about 30 minutes to get all of the shots)
Worst case scenario........your DR may prescribe a small brace to wear while enjoying your favorite sport. (allowing to play comfortably for years to come)
HEY!!!! im a fellow soccer player and that happens to me after i play although it usually goes away over night but i know that if u do the same thing over and over again it can cause this odd thing where ur bone grows too fast for u, it happened to my friend. Also it could be that ur just over working them so maybe lay off it for 1 day. GOOD LUCK
I used to have the same problem, during the soccer season at my school my coach would make us run for miles and do iron mans(when u put your hands on your head and go down on one knee and come back up then do the same with the other knee) My knees began to hurt so bad that I couldn't get anything out of my locker. What i did was get a brace and wore it whenever my knee started hurting and while i practiced, it helped a lot!!
