Hi, from history it seems that you might behaving osteo-artheritis in your lumbo-sacral spines and knee joints as well. You might be having sciatica pain in your thigh and back leg muscles. Go for X-ray of Lumbo-sacral region and knee joints. Go for physiotherapy, short way diathermy and lumbar traction. Go for patellar exercise. Take calcium, vitamin A and D supplements. Avoid weight lifting. Ok and take care.
