The exact cause of the pain can be understood only by a specialist and after appropriate tests. However, it is possible to roughly determine at least the affected area:
If in addition to pain you feel numbness or tingling, the nerve is damaged;
Increased knee temperature and swelling are signs of inflammation;
General weakness, fever, and malaise - joint disease after an illness;
Pain is felt not only in the knees, but also in other joints, such as the shoulder or fingers: this can be both osteoporosis and the consequences of an infectious disease;
Sharp pain in the joint when trying to bend or unbend the leg, and very weak at rest - bursitis or neglected chondropathy;
Impaired mobility in the joint without loss of sensation - this is joint destruction, neoplasm, or arthritis;
Fractures, dislocations, and bruises will be preceded by a bump or fall, which you are unlikely to leave unattended. A dislocation of the joint, ligament and meniscus injuries are accompanied by excessive mobility in the knee.
