You seem to be having early oa esp patellofemoral 1 you have to focus on strengthening exercises to the quadriceps done in a proper manner to prevent further worsening 2 whether you have checked your vitamin d3 level, if not do and take supplements once a week 60000 units for 8 weeks of vitamin d3 3.if available you can get an ultrasound of knee joint affected to know where any changes in the cartilage or ligaments is there. 4 if us scan (less costly) is not available, you can get mri done to rule out any pathology 5 but the most important thing is the quadriceps exercises.
