Subject: Knee Question...

So I have been having slight discomfort in my right knee.  I noticed last night when I straighten it out the cap sort of holds it's place and then 'pops' into position.  I am trying to figure out if this is something I should be concerned about.  Has anyone else had similar issues and is there some sort of prostetic that I can buy at walgreens that will help aliviate this strange slippage of the knee cap.

Not looking to bypass a doctor or get real medical advice...just hoping someone stayed in a Holiday Inn last night?

sounds like runners knee to me - google it and you will find all sorts of advice.  if that describes the feeling - i got a patella strap at k-mart for $14 when i was having issues, and it really really helped.  i wore the strap for quite a few months, more just out of paranoia that it would come back if i didn't. . then i started forgetting to wear it - and sure enough, my knee was fine again - so now i don't wear it anymore
