I understand your symptoms and your question. You may have different diagnosis, but you should exclude autoimmune disorders. Autoimmune diseases can cause harm to many sites in body like arthritis, fibromyalgia, neuritis. First, some investigations should be done like knee x-ray, CBC, c reactive protein, rheumatoid factor, fasting and random blood glucose. Now, start with vitamin B12 injection once every 3 days and if there is osteoarthritis, take glucosamine tablets 3 times daily for 2 months.
