What Is Causing Pain In Knee Making It Difficult To Walk?

Hi my right knee has become very painful i the last few weeks especially after I have been sitting for a while eg in a film or concert. The whole knee is painful and I can hardly walk. I am fit and healthy otherwise and walk about 5 km a day. I would appreciate your opinion. Trish O Loughlin

You have not mentioned your age. I think there could be knee synovial. In this condition because of irritation to knee covering patient complain of pain and swelling. You need to apply gentle warm water and diclofenec ointment. Also you can take voveron tablet. I hope this answers your queries.
