Brief Answer:
Arthritis or inflammation.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
High knee pain with a raised CRP and ESR is suggestive of an inflammation in the joint. This can be due to arthritic changes in the joint. You need to consult an orthopedician for a detailed examination and X-rays and proper prescription medicines.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Praveen Tayal.
