Hello
As you mentioned that there is constant pain in knee and ankle joints with pain in other joints .
Your height is 5 feet , you are over weight ,so first of all you have to decrease your weight by 10 kg .
Other reasons of such type of joints pain may be due to these possibilities in female 67 years , these include:
1 Osteoarthritis , get in MRI of both knee joints for confirmation.
2 Osteoporosis , get in bone density test for confirmation .
3 Rheumatoid arthritis , get in blood for rheumatic factors.
However, there are so many other reason of such joints pain but consultation with an Orthopedician will be useful for you.
For ayurvedic or homeopathic medicine you should consult these doctors.
Good luck.
