hi i have knee pains too and sometimes a knee collapse; I saw one of my workmates who is a physio - he said the reason is cos my hamstrings are much stronger than the quads (he hinted that's from cycling) and this makes my knee to pull and hence the pain. He said the way to get better is by stretching (the kind of strethching where you hold one foot up touching your bottom) and also by making the quads stronger: lying on one side, bending the legs and then lifting the knee up and down - he said to start with 30. :-/
