Hello,
I think he should do a total blood count and an X-ray of the joint. Osteoarthritis of the knee is possible. Taking anti-inflammatory drugs such Advil or Naproxen for pain relief and inflammation are advisable.
Hope I have answered the question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Thank you.
