Suggest Remedy For Swollen Knees

When I was nineteen both knees swole up like softballs. I was just sitting working. The dr xrayed them seeing nothing then took a blood test telling me it was arthuritus. I had trouble Squating and getting up, and had to hold onto something. It got some better then over the years it is very painful to try to squat or get up and can t without something to pull up on. It doesn t hurt to walk. I am 70 but this has been going on since I was nineteen! What is it?
