That might be the solution, gently. Thanks. But which brace? I was able to get 4% lidocaine patches at CVS.

If the 4% Lidocaine don't help get the prescription ones from the Dr. They help me immensely with my back when it hurts really bad. I haven't tried then on my leg/knee area though.

Probably, until I looked at pricing. Some of the compression braces seem painful to put on. It seems (to me) like it must be lateral movement that is causing night pain.
The prescription patches are only 5%.
Everything is more difficult when you can't get sleep.
I hope you have happy dreams.
