Answers:

This is very common in athletic kids, especially boys. But my rough and tumble daughter had it, too! The best tips are REST, avoid a lot of strenuous exercise, use ice frequently if you are exercising, and your doctor can prescribe a knee brace if you continue to have problems. My daughter is now 15 and she hasn't had any problems in the last year or so. The harder you are on your knee.....a lot of exercise and sports....the longer it takes to recover. Good luck to you!
