Grinding and popping sound in both knee

2022-08-27 04:36:05
My mother aged 62+ has been experiencing a grinding sensation in both her knee since the last 4 to 5 days. It's not painful but I'm concerned. She is a little over weight (BMI 32.7). Please advice what steps should be taken at the earliest.
