Is Pain In Knee With Little Cracking During Physical Exercise A Cause For Concern?
After a fairly steep hike, I have had quite a bit of knee pain for several days. My knees crack a bit when I get up, but once I m walking a bit it seems alright. I am 62 and i know I am not a spring chicken. Do you think its something serious? Elizabet
