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.
