Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Severe Pain In The Hips And Knees At Night?
I have pain in my hips, knees and they come mostly at night. Sometimes it feels like it is in the bone below my knee. My right leg is the one I have most of the problems. It isn t every night, but is quite often especially if I have been on my feet a lot during the day. We just moved to a home with hardwood and tile floors, and spending a lot of time moving in the last two weeks. Have also had some back pain, but is better when I sit down. Walking very much really tires my legs out.
It could be an early sign of conditions like arthritis. As a first line management, you can take analgesics like Paracetamol or Aceclofenac for pain relief.
If symptoms persist better to consult an orthopaedic and get evaluated.

Take care
Regards,
