Depending how old you are, your knee pains may be "growing pains". My knees were hurting me so bad and I went to the doctors, got x rays, etc. Nothing showed up. The doctor told me it was probably growing pains. If you are past the age of like 20, you may have athritis. If I were you, I would go back to the doctor and get the test done and tell him how bad it hurts. It may be athritis or it may even be something completely different.

hey, well if your knee is bothering you continuously again then i would go back to the doctors. he wont care that you didnt come back sooner. he will actually be happy that you took the time to come back. tell the doctor that you want to take the test. also ask if you could get medicine that would help take care of the pain better. to me, it sounds like arthritis cause my cousin has it in her ankle. but im not a doctor, so thats just a guess. good luck =].

Only a doctor can diagnose arthritis. Make an appointment and go get the test done. They won't be mad at you for not going back so give them a call.
They can give you stronger medication for arthritis pain. :)
