Do you think that I have any Knee Arthritis?

Well... It's been approximately 9 years since I begun to feel pain on my left-knee. If I'm not mistaken - it started when I was 10 years old ago - now I'm 21 :)
The symptoms were and are stiffness and tenderness on my knee. However there's no external wound exists and I felt like something is "needling" on it.
Up until now I haven't been to any Doctor because my parents prefer traditional treatments like traditional herbs.
But few days ago I read about Arthritis and even Osteosarcoma... It's not that bad yet and it's not the Osteosarcoma :) But I'm afraid that I think it seems like Rheumatoid Arthritis...

What do you think?

You are 21 and a young adult, so get yourself to a Good orthopedic doctor as soon as possible Don't let this go on any longer. You need to be evaluated now!

I think you need to do a little bit of exercise...Walking...You are young and you can prevent arthritis...Some info for you on how to prevent arthritis?

Sally, get yourself to a doctor and have him do a scan of the leg and knee!
You are self diagnosing which is dangerous. If your parents want you to go natural for the treatment; depending of what it is; agree to it. But you need to know what you are dealing with.

I had pain in my right knee for a year, there was tingling and sharp pain down my leg and foot. I thought that I had injured my knee playing football or something.
I finally went to the doctor's; couldn't take it any longer, he had a scan done and found a cyst pushing on the knee-cap and nerve.
It was removed.
You need to know what you are dealing with FIRST!

Step 1, I'd get a freagin doctor.

Step 2, I'd consider suing your hippie parents from depriving you from real medicine.
