Suggest Remedy For Knee & Joint Pain

I AM NOT SUre if the two are related. I am a 58 year old male. Several weeks ago I developed a pain in my left calf and also just above my inner knee joint. When I go for a walk, it causes me to limp. Also, I am out of breath after a minor paced walk around the block.

Hello,

I read carefully your query and understand your concern.

Your symptoms seem to be related to muscle cramp.
I suggest using a muscle relaxant such as Baclofen three times a day.
I also suggest using magnesium supplement for muscle relaxation.
Warm compresses can also help.

Hope my answer was helpful.

If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.

Kind regards!
