Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com

I understand your concern.

The pain in your knee joints and some sounds could be due to bony surfaces rubbing against each other. Please provide an X-ray of both knees (anterioposterior, lateral, and patellofemoral views), so I can let you know the treatment. Anyways, I would suggest continuing the physiotherapy for both knee joints with a focus on muscle strengthening, avoiding postures that eccentrically load the knee joints, avoiding high-impact exercises, and continuing daily morning walks.

I hope this helps.

Thank you.
