Knee pain and swelling
Hello,
My wife is suffering through unusual pain on the knees. Have got the x-ray done and doctors say that the cushion between the joints (liquid) has been damaged and so there is swelling around the knee and pain. Now a days she is unable to even walk without a knee support belt which is unusual for this young age. When she walks there is knuckling sound that keeps coming and feel it's like two bones are getting rubbed.
Please advise for best course of action for this condition as she is barely 29 years old.
Thanks,
Heman sheth
