Knee joint pain
My mother is 62 years old. 4-5 years ago she was affected by knee pain in which doctor said,ssn that it was due to erosion of bones. On 23 rd june, 2021 she fell down in concrete floor. Doctor gave some medicines and asked for Na, K, uric acid, sugar etc. test. Blood reports are not available still now. Shouldn't it more appropriate to do a knee x-ray?

The current complaints are not specified in the history. If she's having pain/swelling/difficult mobility, get an X-ray of the affected knee joint followed by an orthopedic consultation.
