Q: Constant Pain in knees, doctor said athrosis, what else?

Dear forumusers,
I'm a 52 year old male, generally in a good condition.
I exercise like three times a week. But since a couple of weeks I'm suffering from a constant pain in my knees . It began with a slight feeling of immobility and grew stronger and stronger. So, I went to the doctor and he told me that I have athrosis and he prescribed ointments which should relieve the pain. They do so, but they don't treat the illness itself.

Does anyone of you know anything else, which would treat the cause rather than its symptoms?

Was the initial pain only apparent after exercise?
Is the pain usually accompanied by joint stiffness and swelling?
Do you find your activities of daily living a very painful experience (constant pain when moving)?
Do you feel pain even at rest?
