?tendonitis: Any history of injury? If not, tendonitis is a possibility. Try cold or hot packs and, if you can take them, nsaids to relieve inflammation. See your physician if symptoms persist or worsen.

Need Consult: Have an orthopedic surgeon specializing in the knee do an evaluation. May need x-rays, etc. To determine the extent of damage and the possibility of the correct type of surgery. Do it soon as they do not get better on their own, they only get worse.
