Beta, it's quite common for us mothers to experience aches and pains, especially under the knees, making it difficult to walk properly. This could be due to many reasons like a bit of vitamin D deficiency, low calcium, excessive standing or household work, or even just general wear and tear as we get older. Sometimes, it could also be due to mild muscle strain or improper posture.
For some immediate relief, you can try applying a warm compress or a hot water bottle to the area. A gentle massage with warm mustard oil (sarson ka tel) infused with a little garlic can also be very soothing. Ensure you're getting enough calcium-rich foods like milk, yogurt, and paneer, and try to take short breaks while doing chores. If the pain persists or gets worse, please do consult a doctor; it’s always best to get a proper check-up for lasting comfort.
