dear Mr Mohnani
to start with a Xray and a thorough clinical examination of the knee will help.
her symptoms seem like supra patellar tendonitis and osteoarthritis. can you share her age and weight as well.
please visit your nearest arthritis clinic and get her evaluated, if properly treated conservatively knee replacement can be avoided for a long time.
please feel free to ask any more doubts that you have
