As her age n gender suggest its an age of early osteoarthritis
If she had no other joint pain
Then get palain weight beart x rays of knee joint
If it comes normal, it will be soft tisse like meniscal or early cartilage damage
For better suggestion , we need to examine the knees clinically
Thanks n Regards
