Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi, Welcome to healhcaremagic. After going through your query I concluded that you may be suffering from osteoarthritis as it is common in your age. It's treatment is Diacerine,glucosamine and analgesic such as ibuprofen. You can get its x ray to confirm it. You can also do quadriceps exercises to strengthen your muscles. You can discuss it with your doctor about it. If you have any clarification then please don't hesitate to write to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. Wishing you good health. Take care.
