i am 32 years old, have severe pain in both my knees, after consulting a ortho, and an xray was taken. he looked at it and said my cartilage has slightly worn out and it is called chondromalacia patella, its been 8 days since i am undergoing physiotherapy and the pain was gradually reducing( am not sure if it is due to pain killer). now i have developed acute pain while getting from the sofa/cot.

Before i consulted the doc, i used to get the pain only when i sit in the indian toilet, now i am feeling the pain even if i get up from the sofa/cot/climbing stairs, its getting worsened.
