Need orthopedist: Pain in knee has multiple causes including trauma to bone or soft tissues, osteoarthritis, infection, and rarely tumor. Sometimes problem can be ligament, joint effusion, or meniscal injury. The best advice is to consult orthopedic surgeon, for examination and advice, likely radiographs/ mr imaging. Different problems have different solutions such as exercise, medication, surgery or combination.
