You're not bugging me to death! he said my "knees don't track properly". he said "hey---you're not an olympian or athlete so I'm not going to tell you to have surgery, you don't need it." He gave me the braces and told me I need to strengthen the muscles of my inner thighs, right by my knee. I can't remember the name of it. He gave me some exerciss to do on my own and said I could also try physical therapy. I still might do that one day.
