I would get a wrap or a neoprene(sp) knee brace. Better safe than sorry

I Had Injured My Knee Before And My Powerlifting Coach Had Me Just To Do Half Squats For A While. You Can Try That And Aso Maybe Go Less Weight And More Reps. Test Yourself To See What You Can Handle Trial And Error.

I NEVER do squats without bracing my knees. Its just a matter of time before you reach a level where one of your knees won't be able to handle the load and then it will blow out on you. I've done it before and it is no fun. You'll hit the floor and there you will stay until paramedics get there to carry your ass out. :bawling:
