Dr. Hanif warmly welcomes you with thanks for a consult!
I have carefully worked through your case, and can well realize your health worries. Being your physician, I want to assure, I will take care all of your medical concerns according to the latest medical guidelines.
It seems to be related to the joint issues that may include osteoarthritis of the knee joint, damage to the ligaments and tendons of the joint or so.
I preferably suggest you to go for an X-RAY of the joint (AP and Lateral views) and have it reviewed from an Orthopedist. He may need to go for an MRI too and will treat accordingly.
Up to that time restrict movements of the flexion of knee joint as they caused pain. Take Fioricet for pain if consistent. You may apply ThermaCare HeatWraps for soothing effects on the contents of knee.
Hope I answered all of your questions. Please click on 'I Find This Answer Helpful' and don't forget to add your precious positive feedback to help me able to assist you better in future too.
