Hello I understand your concern. Assuming he is above 60-65 years of age, it might be degenerative condition of the knee. It could also be issues with spine or hip that may present as a knee pain. He needs to visit an orthopaedician personally so that his knee can be examined properly.

Hi,
This is very short history to predict anything.
It's better to visit nearby Orthopaedician or consult me direct online .
You can visit us , our clinic is working.
Dr Munde's Orthopaedics speciality centre , Pimple Saudagar, Pune .
Dear,
You can try calcium, Vit D3 and B12 tablets with joint supplements. But we need to ascertain if it is knee only problem or hip or even spine (many times hip and spine problems radiate to knee)
Next Steps
In pune you can definitely visit non covid orthopaedic hospital or opd (Functional Hospital List available on PMC site). No one will stop you from attending opd unless you are in containment zone, my patients attend regularly to my opd in navi mumbai.
Health Tips
Apply Hot/Cold fomentations, try multivitamin supplements, avoid sitting on floor or bending forward, if possible use western WC and see an orthopaedic surgeon.
