Is it bad to exercise with knee pain?For a couple of years I have had knee pain on and off, especially after bending my knees and then standing up. I think it may be chondromalacia patella or patellofemoral pain Syndrome. In the past year I have taken up running, and try to run about two miles 3 or 4 times per week. My neighborhood is relatively hilly, and after running I often have mild pain in my knees. It is better than it used to be, but should I get it checked out by a doctor? Is the running helping or hurting? 10 pts. best answer.

running doesn't help because your knees take alot of pressure from your bodyweight when running, and if your running trainers are getting old then it might be worth buying a new pair, because that could also be the reason why your getting knee trouble, but it is probably best to go check with a doctor and see if they can refer you to a physiotherapist.
good luck
