Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
As per your history, as you already underwent surgery, kindly do MRI knee joints to rule out any other possibility. You can take tablet Etoricoxib for pain. Continue physiotherapy as advised by physiotherapist. Use knee cap continuously.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Shyam B. Kale
