A member asked:
Very painful knee joint when bent or moved - gets worse outside in the cold and when walking up and down hills?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cartilage, ligament: This could be caused by torn cartilage in your knee, or ligament problems. It would be reasonable to try a knee brace and NSAIDs for a while, and then see an orthopedist if symptoms continue to persist.
