What Are The Treatments For Knee Pain And Swelling In Legs?
Hello, I have studied your case. According to your symptoms and findings there is osteoarthritis of your knee. You can start cartilage protecting medication like chondritin sulphate, that you need to take for couple of months. If required MRI knee can be done and if there is severe destruction of menisci then arthroscopic shaving can be done. Physiotherapy like ultrasound and tens will help, along with knee exercises.
