I have pain in my left knee. Left knee has got less flexibility. When I sit with bend knee then it becomes difficult to straighten it and vise versa. I am taking zyliric 300 mg twice daily. What is the issue?

Hello. There are many reasons why you could have knee pain. Most common cause is Osteoarthritis, which usually occurs in elderly age group. Considering your age, it is less likely that you will have Osteoarthritis. Physical examination will be necessary to access your condition. Having said that early onset of osteoarthritis cannot be ruled out. You can start with knee strengthening exercises daily twice. Consult an orthopaedic surgeon near your place.
