What Causes Knee Pain And Weakness After Sitting For Sometime?

I am suddenly have knee pain and weakness. It occurs after I sit for about 10 minutes or more. I have had it for three days, and I have had no injury that I m aware of. After I walk for a couple of minutes it s better, but my knee constantly feels a tad stiff and sore and like there s a catch in it. I am a 45 year old female and I am fairly active.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, single joint arthritis condition may be the likely cause of the symptom you have, better try avoid bending the knee joint more than 90 degree, and for pain Tab Diclofenac 50 mg once in day can be used, some time it may be due to hormone changes common condition in females hope this information helps.
