Do not give up because not exercising is not an option.You can overcome the stiffness in the knee by doing other types of exercises like aqua aerobics(if you have access to a pool) or tai chi ,a type chinese exercise/dance.You can do it standing at one place and it is highly flexible to suit your personal preferences.There are plenty of videos on You tube on Tai chi.

First of all stop taking curd , tamarind and other sour vegetables. Don't drink water in standing position. Go for some supplements which contain glucosamines or go for Immunotherapy for anti - inflammatory effect.
