What is the likely cause of my knee pain on arising form sitting position?
How can I treat knee pain which inhibits me on arising from sitting position.

1. The muscles on your kneecap have tightened up pulling your kneecap up on and into the knee. You have to release that muscle to get rid of the pain. Here's how to release it:Kneecaps:
Do while sitting on a chair with no front cross braces between the legs.
While sitting have your leg resting in a stretched position. Place both your thumbs, side by side, about 2 inches behind the kneecap and press down into your leg hard and then redirect the pressure a little towards the kneecap. After 30 seconds, slowly slide your foot back and under your chair as far as it will go, release the pressure but hold your foot there for another 30 seconds
The important part of this is the pressure on the leg, if there isn't enough pressure this won't take. If you have that happen you can try it once more right away.
2. may be a neurogenically weak quad. see an hio method/upper cervical specific chiropractor.
