Ask her to take proper rest, icing can help. She can also start isometric exercises of knee which will help her to regain strength. It is common at this age having week muscles. With the help of exercise and proper rest she can manage the symptoms. I would also suggest to get an xray to know exact condition of artificial knee. I hope it will help. If not ask me.

If there is no recent trauma, common cause for such is loosening of implant. I suggest you x-ray, along with bone scan. With this we would be able to diagnose the cause of pain. Once that's done we can give her targeted treatment. Ow what's she'll get is blanket treatment just for the pain. I hope it helps.

Hello! since the knee replacement has been done 12 years back, the cause of the pain may be loosening of implant. You should get an xray done and upload here. I hope there is no history if fever, swelling or increased temperature in the knee. She should also undergo blood tests like esr and crp and bone scan. I hope these tests will rule of most of the causes of knee pain in knee replacement patients. Thanks and regards!

Regular check up after any major surgery is important for a patient. You must visit your operating doctor and should get a complete checkup to find out the reason of knee pain. Sometimes it can be just deficiency of calcium and vitamin d3 which can lead to severe pain in legs and generalized body ache with lethargy and weakness like symptoms.
