Suggest Remedy For Severe Pain In Knee While Walking And Bending
i have knee problems. i am 79 years old and knees started bothering me about a year and a half ago . i can no longer walk up steps. walking is very painful, especially if the knees bend a little bit the wrong way.. i would like to find a doctor in the clarksville - new albany area that is good on knee problem diagnosis and treatment. ive heard some horror stories about going to the wrong doctor.
