Right knee pain, popping and cracking

Hi-

I am new to this board.

I have been having problems with my right knee. It is painful at times, when I squat the wrong way, sit down, get up out of bed sometimes, extend it fully. I got a cortizone shot from my family doc which didn't do much of anything. Then I saw an orthopaedic PA-C and she put me on Mobic which hasn't helped much either. I had X-rays, I just don't know if I will be able to get the report to the other doc in time. They said they could do them at the new doc but the PA-C said I am too young for arthritis- I don't believe that. I have a brace which helps a little but I am still in discomfort and pain depending on how I move. I am seeing an orthopaedist tomorrow from another group and will see what happens. I would like to be active but this knee is holding me back!

Anyone have similar situations?
