- There are a few different types of arthritis but the one you have is probably "osteoarthritis". Osteoarthritis is inflammation due to degenerative changes from excessive loading of the articular surfaces of the joint. In your case, this has most likely occured due to your prior injuries, which places more stress on the cartilage in your knee, leading to degeneration and pain.
There is no true cure for this disease, however various surgical and medical means exist that may relieve your symptoms or slow progression.
Surgery: If ligaments or the meniscus were torn in your old injury, surgical repair can restore some measure or congruity to the articular surfaces thereby reducing the progression of osteoarthritis. More drastic surgical measures include total knee replacement or osteotomies.
Medical: Various types of anti-inflammatory drugs are worth trying and can relieve pain as well as reduce swelling. Newer drugs called glucosamines have come into the market which claim to slow the degeneration or even promote repair of the joint lining, although concrete evidence for these claims is controversial.
The best thing you can do now is to avoid straining your knees too much. Exercise can strengthen the muscles around the knee and improve your condition. However, take care to avoid high impact activities such as long-distance running etc. Swimming and cycling are very good alternatives to consider. - Excellent resoure for info on arthritis.

Good luck! - There's no cure or stop of arthritis especially of the knee but there are preventions. The most important thing is to exercise frequently in order to keep your joints functioning well. Also milk and other vitamin D and Calcium product food can also will help one maintain strong bones which can also help to prevent one from having arthritis.
- So far, there is no cure for arthritis. I wish there were for I suffer from it as well on a daily basis. You need to keep active for one thing, even through the pain. Keep your weight down so that you will not have extra stress on your knees. Enjoy your life right now and stop thinking about how bad it could get for you will miss out on so much. You perhaps may want to seek out a rheumologist who specializes in arthritis. You will get a blood test and find out exactly what kind of arthritis you have and to what extent.
