Dr. Alvin Wells answered

Specializes in Rheumatology

Knee pain: In the absence of significant injury, knee pain or stiffness should not be of major concern. I would recommend resting the knee and trying mild over the counter anti-inflammatory agents. If your symptoms persist, I would see an orthopedic surgeon or a sports medicine specialist.
