I will be happy to discuss your problem with you. Worn out knees are common at your age. The medical term is osteoarthritis or OA for short. The treatment plan is based on what your expectations are.
If you want to return to an active life with pain free knees, the best option would be to have surgery. No I am not taking about arthroscopy.
Next Steps
I need to see xrays of both your knee joints -- AP and lateral views before I can comment on whether you are the right candidate.
Health Tips
Keep your weight under control. Walk daily for at least 30 - 60 min. Eat fresh fruit and vegetables. And expose yourself to the sun. Continue Static quads exercises to unload your knee (physio can help you with that).
Good luck!
