Should i go to the doctor for my knee pain?

The pain is on and off it is not constant, the pain usually comes when i put pressure on my leg but it doesn't happen all the time, my knee isn't swollen. The pain started a while ago but worsened when i feel on it while roller blading. I was just wondering if i should go to the doctor or not because i don't know if it's serious enough.

1. if it's been happening for a while then you should go get it checked out because it's probably going to become more painful and occur more frequently. you might be better off going to a physio though, rather than a doctor because they'll know more about the issue

2. You should go to the doctor and get x-rays to rule out any damage to the bones. Then you can be examined for ligament and muscle damage. If it's all okay, at least you know that. If it's not, it can be addressed and treated. First step is diagnosis by a medical professional.
