I can extend my leg fully and dont have much pain whenn walking, but I feel some pressure after work, where I am on my feet 8 hrs.Mark

Hello,
It may be due to osteoarthritis. For confirmation, you may require X-ray knee or MRI after orthopedic surgeon consultation. For pain you can take tablet acetaminophen. Further treatment mainly depends upon the underlying condition. Use knee cap. Avoid squatting position.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
