Daisy answered Tuesday December 14 2004, 10:54 am: It sounds like it is growing pains. they will be painful and strange after doing x-country. If you go to the doctor, they can give you some special knee bandages that will support your knees while you are running so they won't be so painful afterwards.

You have to rest and relax your knees! Do you stretch before you run? Try stretching more! Take Advil or Alieve before and after you run! Hope I helped :)

But it was just growing pains and i got it in my arms and legs too. So no worries. It will last for awhile, but it should stop in a few monthes or maybe even a year. If it doesnt stop by then, then you should probably ask your doctor.
