Its not surprising that the doctor suggested those things, as its not really the domain they focus on. If you have bio-mechanical pain, its often better to see a physiotherapist, who can better diagnose the underlying reason and help you resolve it properly.

> Its not surprising that the doctor suggested those things

I saw an orthopedist who claimed to specialize in sport injuries. He immediately understood which part of the knee was affected. Also I'd expect a doctor who's out of his depth to suggest a specialist, not a "meh, try this".

As with engineers, the three least commonly uttered words among doctors are “I don’t know.”
Apparently, I'm not an engineer.
