What Causes Pain In The Legs And Kneecap Misalignment?
My knees and legs hurt. I think I am beginning to suffer from arthritis. My knees are sort of lumpy and sometimes feels like my kneecap/bone comes out of the socket and needs to be re-aligned . I ve been using magnesium sporadically and also drinking vinegared water. Thank you

Hello,
Your symptoms seem to be related to arthritis. I suggest doing an X-ray of the knee and legs.
I also suggest doing a rheumatoid factor level for further evaluation. Meanwhile, I suggest using anti-inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the pain.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
