2 versions of knee problem

When I went to my family doctor with my knee pain, he pressed on the side, which caused pain. He told me it was bursitis, and recommended cortisone shots. Had to shots and pain did not subside. Went to an orthopedic doctor, who had x-rays take of both legs. Told me it was osteoarthritis. I tald him I was takin ibuprofen, and he suggested I up the dosage. I walk every day, and use a threadmill as long as I can. Any suggestions? Marian
