Answer 1

First find out what's wrong with your knees by going to a specialist. It might be that you simply need to strengthen them and stabilize them. That can be done in 4-8 weeks with the right program. If you have something more serious then it would be good to know and the orthopedics can tell you what to do.

Answer 2

You should keep playing, soccer is a really awsome sport. But play smart, if something happens tell the coach.

However you might want to get in to see a Physical Therapist, they can help you strengthen your knees. So try to get in ASAP!

But if you do play before you see a PT, you should wear knee braces. They may be unconfortable, but they should help prevent any further damage.

Hope that helps :-)

Answer 3

keep playing, there's always a match going on whether its in a gym or on the streets. In my town we've got a pick up game every sunday morning. Just get some guys together, pick sides and play. You'll miss it too much if you stop. I felt the same way about a month ago when I was feeling the pressure of trying to get a scholarship. Make the game fun again.

Answer 5

You should consult your doctor about the problem. While it may only be the pains of the teenage growth spurt it may be a condition that could put you in a wheel chair for the rest of your life. Seek professional help.
