Q: from last year up until now i have been at home and barely left the house. my one knee feels weak all of a sudden. is this because i am not walking as much as i should ?

: Gently and gradually start walking increasing the distance a little every day. massage the knee gently with some oil daily. You should recover in a week or two.
