Severe leg pain below left knee
Hello Doctor, I am around 70 years old and a retired person. Since last 6 months, I am facing issues in walking because i have severe leg pain below my right knee(only). Whenever I sit or I walk, It pains continuously. I took physiotherapy for around 3 weeks but that has not become effective completely. I am still doing all the exercises given But I need to know what exactly is the problem as Doctors say that my knee is not in a worse condition to have a knee replacement. So I need to understand what exactly is the problem and whether it is curable through exercises? I infact got my back xray as well which is fine enough to not have any back related issue. Please help
