If the symptoms are bilateral as u have stated in you case, they may be related to some motor nerve compression in the lower back region
However these mostly accompany with lower back ache, difficulty to walk long distances in a single sprint.
If all these symptoms, are present you should investigate them with lumbar and sacral spine x rays.
If not, simple physiotherapy of knee, hip and lower back shall help if continued for atleast 3 weeks.
Take care
