Knee Pain: What autoimmune d/o do you have? How long have you had the knee pain? What type of knee pain are you having? Did you have any x-rays done of your knee? What aggravates your knee? It's common for symptoms to radiate up to the hip or down into the leg. Do you wear any types of knee support? Ever tried topical meds like Voltaren (diclofenac) gel or lidocaine gel to your knee? If not, could be useful for pain.
