What Causes Pain In Knee Radiating To Ankle When Diagnosed With Arthritis?

I have had constant pain for the last few weeks running from my knee down the side of my calf to my ankle . i have been diagnosed with arthritis on my right knee and have had surgery on my knee four years ago . rest helps minimally . Ice helps somewhat , but my job requires me to be on my feet all day and the symptoms reappear each day . there is slight swelling constantly around the knee .

Based upon the history you have provided it seem to be osteoarthritis...
All you need is to stay calm and meet orthopedic surgeon and you need to modify your living style..
