Knee cap hurts when bending?

Today my kneecap hurts when I bend (such as getting up from sitting down). I don't remember hurting it at the gym or anything, any reason why it might be? I have been running everyday and I weigh 260 lbs.


Should I be concerned?

    Depends on the acuity of the pain.

    running can be very hard on knees. If it contiues......you may want to try something else until you have lost more weight. Weight loss will help tremendously. Good luck!
