If it doesnât work, probably needs knee replacement surgery. Best wishes.

1.pendulum stretch do this exercise first. Relax your shoulders. Stand and lean over slightly, allowing the affected arm to hang down. Swing the arm in a small circle — about a foot in diameter. Perform 10 revolutions in each direction, once a day. As your symptoms improve, increase the diameter of your swing, but never force it. When you're ready for more, increase the stretch by holding a light weight (three to five pounds) in the swinging arm.

Dear lybrate-user, your knee must be in bad condition of osteoarthritis. It will be better if you see a knee specialist near you and get x ray done. He might suggest you surgery (i am just assuming from your complaints). Start doing knee exercise. Static cycling is of good help. Initial few days it will be painful. But later your pain will subside.
