Suggest Treatments For Stiffness And Mild Pain In My Knee
I am a 57 year old female. My left knee has been giving me some difficulty for about two months now. I believe it happened when I was going up and down two flights of stairs in an attempt at exercising. My symtoms are mild pain with an occasional ache but its not in the joint and its on the inside part of the knee. It feels fine when I rest or elevate it but when I am walking it hurts a little and especially when I try to bend the knee such as taking the stairs. I pretty much keep my leg stiff. Can you help identify it and hopefully give me some advice please?

These could be the early symptoms of osteoarthritis.Fomantation with towel soaked in warm water should help. Aceta aminophen 250mg 2-3 times a day alongwith Multivitmin 1 tab daily should give relief.Contact me again. if no relief in 1 wk.
