I am suffering from either muscle catch or ligament strain in both legs below kneecap or knee joint for past 10 days with inability to stand on my feet with severe unbearable pain. Especially getting up and down stairs lot of pain. Tried lot of painkillers, some were ineffective and some were effective but were sedative to lose control on my sensory and motor function.
