Being unable to walk

GenieS1999

I dislocated my left knee just over a year ago, since then I have constantly been in pain and the pain is now also in my right knee. I'm finding it very difficult to walk and sometimes even straighten my knees. I think from dislocating my knee I now may have OA, I am hoping to get diagnosed as soon as possible.

I was wondering if anyone had any idea on how I can manage the pain, as it is now affecting my current life.

I accpeciate you taking the time for reading and hopefully helping me with this problem I am now dealing with.

Thank you, Genie.

Hi.
sorry you are struggling with pain. The obvious question is have you seen your GP yet? What about creams that you can rub on to help with the pain whilst you wait for an appointment. The pharmacist could probably advise you.
