Hi, this is Dr Hitin Mathur, orhopaedic surgeon at Fortis C Doc Hospital, New delhi. An examination of your knee will be helpful in finding the cause of your pain. Any history of twisting injury to the knee? Any other joint stiffness? Any fever or loss of weight or appetite? Any instability of the knee?
