I had oz good schlatters through high school ) I believed it was through my dancing and sports which I had done all my life. I am now 37yo and still get exactly the same pain in my knees and the lumps are still there. I suffer at night from really bad cramps in my ankles and feet and also in my knees, The pain is excruciating and often brings me to tears. What can you suggest I try as it is becoming unbearable and I am stuck with what to do. I also have sclerosis of the liver and cancer of the liver. lower spine arthritis and am awaiting liver transplantation, so am very unwell anyway.

Hello, I had gone through your query and understood your concern. In my opinion dancing and sports which you used to do and also you age had effected the weight bearing sites (knees) which might present as osteoarthritis in later stages. I could suggest you to use paracetamol or ibuprofen for pain relief of your legs but sorry to say that paracetamol should not be used in LIVER problems. So take advise of senior doctor in a hospital. Hope it helped you. Thanks
