Hello,
You probably have osteoarthritis resulting from wear and tear of your knee joint. Omega 3 fatty acid in fish oil helps in reducing the pain. Omega 3 of Flax seed is less effective.
My patients use Glucosamine, Chondroitin and MSM in addition to omega 3. Another natural product that has been found helpful is aloe vera gel.
