    Hello MarieAzzi,  I have arthritis for many years. Arthritis is usually gradual but can be constant pain. I am able to bend my knee even with constant pain. My advice is to go to your GP for a proper diagnosis, it could be a number of things that could be causing the pain, torn ligament and inflamation could cause constant pain. Hope you get some answers soon.

    I'd go to doctors as it maybe one of many. I've got Arthritis in both knees and even ripped my cartilage which was operated on. I have good days and bad but I'm able to bend my knee/knees. Good luck in finding out your prognosis

    Hi Arthritis,is not great,as there is no cure.I take herbal remedies eg turmeric,and have Reflexology as much as possible.I also have had a hip replacement,but failed as I am very stiff and I know I have big problems in my other hip & knees! But as I am utterly tense I would rather stay the way I am.My Huuby too needs help with walking as he severely sighted in both eyes,& deaf & suffers from mobility issues.! Sorry to rantRegards Amanda h
