My mother has knees problem. The last doctor she saw told her that her that there frictions in her knees (Im not sure what is the proper term for that, but basically the bones in her knees are touching and it hurts her if she walks a long distance). This problem also caused her to gain weight which in turns made her feels lazy most of the time and she would get pale if she doesnt eat enough food.
