Find the cause: The first task is to get a diagnosis. In your age group, arthritis & mensical tears are common causes of pain. Icing, bracing, physical therapy, medications are first-line treatments. An orthopedic doc can give you many detailed options, and reducing your pain & improving function should occur.
