OK, if you are 5'7" and 152 lbs, you are well into the healthy range for BMI!. So it's not your weight! You could have a little chondromalacia, or maybe even a bit of a meniscus tear!. You need an MRI, to determine what is exactly going on in those knees!. Get to a sports medicine orthorpedic doc!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
