I have had knee pain for a year from carrying heavy weights. How can it be treated?

It is best to consult a doctor or physiotherapist who can assess your knee and recommend exercises to strengthen the surrounding muscles, which help support the joint and reduce pain. Rest your knee, avoid lifting heavy weights, and use ice packs or painkillers such as paracetamol or NSAIDs under medical supervision.
