I feel like both my knees are going to collapse?!
Question: I feel like both my knees are going to collapse.?
For a few days every 3 weeks approx my knees feel really weak, I still can walk but I sometimes just collapse. It feels like it's a muscle not a bone thing, and if I do get an ache it feels like it's at the bottom of my knee. Sometimes it's both knees, sometimes it's just either. I don't know whether I should bother my doctor or not.Health Question & Answer
Answers:
You may want to talk to your doctor. But it could simply be an exercise thing. If you haven't been exercising that would make your knees feel weak. Or it could be eating or you could be sick. If you have the opportunity, I'd say check with the doctor, but try to figure out exactly what feels wrong and check to see if anything other than your knees feels wierd.Health Question & Answer
If you are female, this could be hormonal. Pregnant women release hormones that cause the joints to loosen in preparation for child birth. It's possible that you have a hormonal imbalance contributing to some loosening of your joints. This seems particularly likely because you note that it's cyclical.
