[|Human|] i am 41years old female. my knee pain started about 6 month ago, just left when I was scooching down, then both knees all the time pretty much. . I would have pain after working in the yard, or just sitting at the desk at work, than at night too. . In the last 4 days pain is diminishing, the only 2 difference in my life style is that i don; t drink coca cola 0 in the last 2 months. I was also thinking, that having the celing fan on at night might and having my bare legs exposed could have caused a problem, so I have been wearing long pajama pants in the past 3 monts too (thinking if I keep my knees covered it would not irritate my joints). . does it make sence?
[|AI|]  Hello, At your age the most common cause of pain at the knee is:- Inflammation of covering of joint i.e. synovitis-Loss of cartilage at knee leading to arthritis There are also various other reason for knee pain. I shall advise you following to have relief:- Avoid frequent up or down on stairs.- Avoid cross leg positions.- Start doing some exercises like qua Chat Doctor. - Take a mild analgesic off and on like Advil for relief from pain.- Apply a local analgesic ointment and do warm water fomentation with water bag over the knee. If this all does not resolve your problem then you may consult to your doctor and get yourself investigated including X-ray and blood investigation like CBC, blood sugar, thyroid functions, serum uric acid etc. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
