Even now there is pain in my right knee & bothers me wheras left knee is absolutely normal with no problem. What could be underlying cause n possible treatment Doctor: Hi,  As first-line management, you can take analgesics like paracetamol or aceclofenac for pain relief.   If symptoms persist better to consult an orthopaedic and plan for an X-ray.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
