Hello,
Thanks for your query.
They could be possibly due to Osteoarthritic changes (owing to your age and typical symptom of pain while getting up from a seated position).

Xrays of the involved joints will show up the severity of the arthritic (wear & tear) changes in the joints.

Protecting the joint from excessive load may slow down the rate of cartilage loss. It is also effective in relieving pain. The heavier you are, the more stress you put on your joints. Weight reduction for obese patients, wearing shock-absorbing shoes, avoiding activities like climbing stairs and using a walking stick are worthwhile.

I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query.
Take care
