Weight Loss for Everyone: Pain in knees/shins when running - what to do?

Pain in knees/shins when running - what to do?

I’m 20 years old. I weigh 198lbs and I’m 5’2. I’ve been overweight pretty much my whole life. I decided to take advantage of this quarantine and lose some weight. I went out a few times and jogged but I would experience pain in my shins and knees and sometimes my ankles. I know it’s from years of heavy weight on my body but do you have advice for this? It’s not excruciating or anything. I usually stop jogging once the pain starts and let myself rest and then jog again until it bothers me once more.

I realized I actually enjoy going out for a run and found it to be enjoyable but I know that running on pain is not good and don’t want to injure myself. Do I have to avoid running all together until I lose the weight? Or is it okay to do it intervals?

I experience pain in my knees often, even if I’m not exercising. I get knee pain when I go up stairs. It’s really annoying and worries me a lot. Does this leave when I lose the weight?

Any advice is appreciated thanks
