Firstly get her uric acid checked. There is much you can do at home to manage the symptoms of bone spurs. Your first goal is to reduce the associated inflammation. Apply a cold pack to the affected area. Heat packs raise temperature and increase blood circulation, so they are counter-indicated in situations where inflammation exists. Cold therapy with ice, on the other hand, reduces swelling and pain by constricting blood vessels which helps relieve the inflammation. This age is of menopause, if your mother is not suffering from kidney and gallbladder stone, than she can eat 1 gram lime stone (choona) in 100 grams dahi everyday, this problem is of vaat (vaat pit kaff), avoid refined oil, use only pure mustard oil or cow ghee, or olive, vaat diseases becomes worst if you use refined or double refined, infact everybody in your home should abolish refined oil.
