Hello,

You are having both knee arthralgia. I cannot see your MRI report and you have not mentioned your age. The best means of treatment will be to undergo a session of physiotherapy to decrease pain and improve mobility. You can also try to loose weight and avoid squatting which will improve your knee health. Only after undergoing proper physiotherapy and lifestyle modification if you don’t have pain relief them after consulting your doctor you can consider surgical option.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Santosh S Jeevannavar, Orthopedic Surgeon
