Hi doctor, I am a 25 year old female. My weight is 18 stone and height is 5'11". My knees crunch when I walk and often give way. My ankles are feeble, and my feet feel sore. I know that I am overweight and currently in the process of losing weight. But, due to the pain, it is getting in the way of my gym sessions. I am worried there could be something underlying due to hurting both my ankles and left knee over the years (really bad sprains). Could this be connected to my weight as a contributing factor? Please help. My pain is getting worse. I feel embarrassed going to the doctors due to my weight.
