Hi Shilpa, pl note down your's weight that is very much important in this situation, if you are obese than pl reduce your weight that is first step for your treatment. Osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis are the two big factors for knee joints pain besides overweight. Other reasons may be there. Don't be in panic, ayurvedic treatment is there for this disease. Cartilages of your's knee joints should be in healthy condition. Try to consult another doc, if not satisfied with the tt of one.
