Knees problem
I have pain in both Knees last 6 years. My age is 35. (1) Pain during the descending the Stairs. (Note, only little bit pain during Climbing the stairs). (2) I can not FAST RUN since last 6 years due to Knee pain. (3) Pain during small jump also. Few days ago, I took X-ray of AP, Lateral view & Skyline view but no problem found. It means no PATELLA issue. I am also taking Calcium, Vit-D3 supplement since last 6 years (Few months I forgot medicine). Uric acid level is proper. No any sport activity in my past life. Physiotherapy completed (Static Quadriceps, Hamstring with Weight Cuff-1 KG) but no result. One doctor said it may be Muscle week. How to check Muscle is week or not of Knee (I suppose, Dexa scan may not say Knee muscle strength, Dexa is for other part of body bone). Shall Sonography/MRI tell me strength of Knee-Muscle ?? Acupressure doctor said due to major Toxins in my body, blood circulation is not reach at both knees & pain happened. Is this reason is correct ??

According to your symptoms, you may be having a condition called Chondromalacia Patella which is a damage to the Underlying cartilage of the Patella or the Knee Cap. What the Accupressure doctor suggested may not be true for the fact that no other body part is damaged. Is the blood bypassing the knees and flowing to the ankles and feet?? No, it doesn't work that way. You may need an MR Cartogram which tells you the status of the Cartilage (if the problem is definitely  cartilage related). Cartilage is not seen on an X-ray so it's hard to tell on an x-ray unless the damage is too severe. This being said, I wouldn't completely rule out other problems entirely.
Next Steps
Orthopaedic consultation. MR Cartogram or a Knee MRI ( will give a generalised idea about the knee ) Gentle physio - Open chain and Isometric Knee exercises, Ice pack applications post Physio and *Tab. Jointace* once daily for a Month
Health Tips
Do not go for Needle Treatment and all those for the knee joint. High chances of septic arthritis of done wrongly. The correct treatment is usually a long process, so have patience
