Hello,
I have studied your case and most probably you are having either chondromalacia patellae. In this condition there is pain during squatting and sitting cross leg.Brexin is just a pain killer and there is no role of curing this. I would recommend you to send your MRI report to me so that I can offer you better advise.
Till then I would suggest you to take tablet Etoricoxib one daily and do not do any ground level activity.
I hope this answer will be useful for you. Let me know if there is any other followup questions.
thanks
