See a physio.
dodgy form and too much weight stuffed my knee around a year or two back..
after not squatting, pretty much ever, i worked in with a mate - weight wasn't big at all, around 60kg, but I guess it was too much after never squatting - and not warming up..
I was fine for about a week, then I started getting a real sharp pain in my left knee, and it was cracking big time (crepitus).
Not sure if you have any symptoms aside from when you squat..
Physio helped a lot.. Got me wearing a special brace to control the movement of my patella..
As the others have said - physio + learn how to squat properly.

i have seen peter.
I am pretty sure my back squat form is correct (will have a session with peter again though, once this knee thing goes away). It was my starting powerclean position (i think....and since corrected by peter) that was problematic.
thanks though. (will possibly see a physio)

He means you should see a physio.
He means that he is not a medically-trained person, and even if he were people cannot diagnose you online they have to meet you, and so you should see a physio.

Ooh a knee problem, im good with these! If the pain is not from poor form, stance or from stablising muscles working over time for the latter, then there is No Recovery mate, its all diagnostic from here, until you find out what the deal is. its a good idea for sporty people to have their knees scanned from time to time. It maybe anything from cartillage issues (overgrowth - Torn - Wears and thinning) to ligament issues, even the way fluid sits in your knee can bring on pain when in certain strains. <- Ofcoarse, all worst case senarios.
Go get it checked out mate. Better to be safe with such a major joint

Kyle and Ricko have provide the only two sensible answers.
No on here AFAIK is a trained professional and even if they were it would be impossible to diagnose.It could have nothing to do with form etc.
Coming from someone who has had a serious knee problem that effectively put me out of action for 2 years I`m telling you this - don`t even mess around with it.Get it checked out.
