Brief Answer:
Get x-rays done.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I have gone through your query.

You have not mentioned at which time and by doing which type of work pain occurs, does pain occurs with pushing and pulling of heavy objects or pain usually occurs even at rest.

Anyways, now you need to get x-ray of both knees standing AP view and lumbosacral spine in AP and Lateral view. So that I can see the your present condition of knee joint and vertebrae with discs.

Till then for pain management in your case you may also need in addition 1 tab . thiocolchicoside + aceclofenac three times a day by prescription.

Do quadriceps and back strengthening exercises in morning and evening.

Avoid pushing and pulling of heavy objects and upstairs.

Apply hot packs for 30 min in morning and evening .

I hope it helps.
