A) Arthritis is developing in both your knees and the normal joint spaces have reduced resulting in friction between the two bones involved in the joint becoming the reason for your pain or stiffness of knee joints. B) Synovial chondromatosis is a tumor involving the synovial membrane..luckily it's a benign tumor but the nodules that get formed may get released in the joint. Contact for proper advice on management.
