after some clarification and research, i guess i more or less know whats the problem with my knees.
and i can kind of diagnose myself with knee tendonitis.
"Knee tendonitis is an inflammation of the knee tendons. The knee is the most vital joint in your body. If the tendons are inflamed, the pulling action of the muscle is impaired and it can cause pain and hinder movement. Knee tendonitis produces pain, tenderness and stiffness near a joint and is aggravated by movement. The inflamed tendons in the knee are usually painful when moved or touched, and the tendon sheaths may be visibly swollen from the accumulation of fluid and inflammation. It commonly occurs due to overuse or injury to the knee joint."
"Moving the joints near the knee tendon may cause severe pain. The pain may be worse when walking fast, ascending or descending stairs, getting up from a seated position, and at night. There may also be swelling from the inflammation."
damn, i have ALL of the above mentioned symptoms.
but somehow or rather, it relieved me a little.
initially i was thinking along the line of arthritis.
so thank god, i'm much assured that it isnt right now.
i've gotten this through huiling jie's recommendation.
i hope it helps.
now the question is..
should i even seek doctor's consultation?
