Pain in pain in both knees, it started this past week, if I kneel or squat down I cannot get back up without tightly holding on to something and physically pushing myself up and the pain then is excruciating. They are aching and painful even without movement. I m 57 and never had any real medical problems
Dear patient you seem to have early stage osteoarthritis. Pain on squatting and difficulty in getting up indicate this. I would like to advise X-ray of both knees anteroposterior view lateral and skyline view. Please get it done from radiology center nearby you. Meanwhile, start tab diclofenac sodium 50 mg twice a day for pain relief. Avoid squatting and crossed leg sitting. Start qua Chat Doctor.
