Suggest Remedy For Severe Pain In Right Knee

My right knee has been causing me so much pain, the pain is so bad that I have a hard time walking, I have to use a cane. I have fallen a few times. I have been getting shots in my knees for the past five years, My right knee does not bother me but the shot does not do my left knee any good. I can t stand the pain anymore. I have a apt. with a orthopedic surgeon in Oct. but I honestly don t think I can wait that long. Any suggestions
