Do you warm up good before you start lifting?
If it hurts don't keep doing it, you may have an injury.Cool

Make sure your keep your weight on your heels. If your squatting on the balls of your feet the knee extends past the toe creating a sheering action. NOT GOOD.
It may also be an issue of loose cartilage.
Good Luck, Train Hard

High-intensity training is going all-out, not almost all out. It is taking one set to one's absolute limit, not almost to the limit. It is using whatever equipment’s available. It is not the words of two or three men, but a commitment to work as hard as possible while in the gym without socializing, resting excessively between sets, or falling prey to the 'this isn't going to work so I'll copy the star' attitude"

On squats, do your feet point forward or slightly outwards?

Toes pointed slightly out.
If you point them straight you must stay in a narrow stance or you may strain the hips. But in a narrow stance you may find it difficult to keep the weight on you heals.
Slightly wider than shoulder with and toes pointed slight slightly out is the way to go.
AND NONE OF THAT HALF SQUAT PUSSY BULL SHIT!!!!!! PUT YOUR ASS IN THE HOLE! GET A FULL RANGE OF MOTION!
You dont do half reps on other exercises so dont do them here!

*** No, most people don't. You have to look at the joints involved in the lift and their ROM. Not the muscles. That's why so many people hurt themselves.

Proper execution will not cause any pain. Poor execution will cause pain. Squats will make your bones and knees stronger.
