When bending, both of my knees are extremely painful.

They have crunching sounds in them, or sounds as if they were rolling on gears and going through the notches. When I sit in a chair I have to do this with my legs straight and hold on to a table while I descend to the chair. Once sitting I can bend them slightly, or gently lift them to a bent position. As I do this they seem to feel as if they are caught on something and then they also pop. I straddle stairs one at a time with both legs straight, and step at the very end-side of each step, being left or right respectively for each leg. I always use 1-2 canes

Anybody out there have any clue as to what could be causing this very painful issue? I realize I may have to see a Dr. if it does not go away.

Thanks for any responses.
