Hey guys, I really have no idea what to do, so any experience and/or med information would be greatly appreciated:

I’m 21 years old, I’ve always been sporty – from swimming to tae kwon do… etc. And recently I’ve taken up running, but I hadn’t ran in a while because all of a sudden, lately, my knee and hip joints are hurting (like a dull pain triggered by movement), and ALL my joints are cracking at the slightest movement – I’ve always cracked my knuckles, knees, hips, spine, neck… you name it. But they’ve never cracked on their own, just from moving them…

I’ve been taking Glucosamine for this, for almost two weeks i’ve been taking it – and drinking milk and stuff (for calcium) but the issues are continuing… does anyone know what it could be? and what I should do about it?

Thanks so much guys! :)

My Lab often seems sore after a long exercise, he is older (5-7yrs), he is also very big (110lbs), so we decieded to buy Glucosamine and Chondroitin chewable tablets made just for dogs and we give him the daily recommended dosage. We also picked up a bag of Dogswell Happy Hips. My question is, can a dog get too much Glucosamine and Chondroitin? And will it effect his health negatively?
Add: He only gets 1 of those Happy Hips as a treat everyday.
Mups Pup: Our vet only recommended the G and C tablets. We recently picked the HH at the local groomers and haven’t asked yet. He is 102lbs, and is a great weight for his bone structure. He’s very tall and long, much bigger than your average Lab.
Sorry, meant 110lbs and Mups MOM!

im 18.. i take glucosamine tablets and they dont work
