Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The symptoms seem to be related to knee pain.
Based on the fact that you are talking anticoagulants, the best painkiller is Acetaminophen.
It has less side effects than other anti inflammatory medications.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contappct me again.
Kind regards!
