Rheumatologist,  's  Response
she seems to be suffering from osteoarthritis which is a degenerative condition affecting the cartilage of the knee.
this causes pain in the knee when she moves the knee , goes up and down stairs, sits crosslegged.
you need to see a rheumatologist, who can advise exercises and certain medication for this problem.
