What Causes Painful Leg, Swollen Knee And Tingling Foot?

I ve been having severe traveling pains in my left leg - sometimes above the knee, sometimes below - sometimes tingling in my foot like I m being stung. My knee swells up so I can hardly bend it, and I have difficulty walking - on & off. Any clues?

It looks like you are having OA Osteoarthritis of Lt Knee. You have to reduce
your weight,wear knee-cap over the knee while walking, avoid deep bending
of the joint.
Physiotherapist may help you with quadriceps exercise .
Drugs like Diclofenac and Aceclofenac may reduce the feeling of pain.
Xray of Knee and SOS orthopedic surgeons advice can help when problem
is recurrent.
