HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
You can try exercises to strengthen the muscles around the knee joint, this would help to improve stability and may help reduce your discomfort.
In addition the use of glucosamine, chrondroitin may help, they help some persons not all. They are suppose to help repair cartilage.
Topical agents such as voltaren gel may also help to relieve your pain.
I hope this helps
