Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
By your history and description, possibility of severe knee joint pain is more likely in your husband's case.
So give him painkiller like ibuprofen or acetaminophen.
He should definitely consult orthopedic doctor and get done clinical examination, x ray and MRI of knee joint to identify the cause of pain.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your husband. Thanks.
