Hello. My mom is 53 years old. She is handicapped. She uses her right hand on her right leg to walk, so total stress is on right leg. She walks this way from her birth. Few weeks ago, she was coming from neighbours house and that day she had walked little bit, and when she came, she fell down and couldn't stand and and it was very painful too. So when we consulted doctor, he took x ray of her right leg, and found that her knee grease has been vanished. He prescribed some medicines for a week. There was some improvement, mom started walking but she wasn't able to put weight on her right leg and it was painful. Next week, we visited doctor again, he prescribed same medicines for another week. But he is giving painkillers, when mom do not eat it, pain starts again But now the situation is, mom is not able to walk properly as she used to. And she has lot of pain in her right leg. My mom blood pressure is normal. No diabetes. And no other disease. Medicines prescribed by doctor Elfenac plus pantocid p Moreover my mum complains about pain in his hands when she wakes up, she is not able to open her fist.
