How to manage severe knee stiffness and clicking sounds during dry winter months?

I am a 48-year-old female living in Delhi. Every winter when the temperature drops and cold winds pick up, both my knees become exceedingly stiff upon waking up and produce audible cracking (crepitus) when climbing stairs. Is this aggravated Vata dosha? Which classical oils and dietary remedies can lubricate the joints?
