Exclamation Worried about Damaging Knees   #1  
recently I have taken up trying to lose some weight... and well first was walking got up to running and then some point after running my legs started hurting, at first I was like eh no pain no gain what not

but it started to get really bad so I got braces and stopped running... went back to walking... been walking 5 miles 3 times a week...

I feel stonger and all, but I'm now having problems with my hips and knees...
it is more pain than I'm used to... not sure what to do...

had got a scale that reads your fat, water, bone, and muscle % and I'm low on bone and water compared to an adverage human my height... at least that is what the scale says

I more likely will have to find a doctor to talk to for this matter sometime, however, I don't find our family doctor to be smart and well I don't trust him... will have to look around first... sigh....

I can't completely cut out the exercise or my months of walking will go to waste wondering if anyone here knows anything about knee damage and ways to help reduse it or some exercises that are low impact on them so they can heal

---
it doesn't hurt all the time, it hurts worst when I walk for too long and don't have the knee brace on, when I walk on stairs, or when I'm trying to go to sleep...
