After sitting down from a chair, when i stand up and about to walk i feel pain at my knee. it's been 3 years and it is always on and off. why?

Knee pain: The simple answer is that you probably have arthritis in your knee. Usually there is no swelling and mostly you may feel gritty feelings in your knee called crepitations. Aleve (naproxen) or other type medicines should make your knee feel better.
