Knee Pain:As arthritis is very common that you get generally bilaterally. Ice therapy would definitely help to reduce the inflammation. We also advise you to use knee cap which would help to prevent the knee from damaging further and also to maintain the quadriceps muscle tone.

On 24th June 2017, My dad advised my mom that he felt some swelling under lower abdominal and upper right thigh. Mom did some ideas massage (pain relief gel) but it was not worthful. On 1st July 2017, we went to our local hospital (Pahwa Hospital, Ludhiana, India), we met with a Doctor (MBBS, MD), he checked and advised to do Ultra sound test, CT Scan and Needle test. On 5th of July 2017, the local doctor advised me after seeing the reports, he has cancer and he recommended to go to the renowned oncologist in Ludhiana (forte hospital). On 11th of July 2017, dad was so weak that he could not stand, could not walk and he could not speak properly. So, we went to a known hospital where they gave antibiotics, paracetamol, glucose drips. In the CBC blood report, blood infection came out. After the antibiotics treatment, the fever is under control now. From yesterday, dad right leg is swelled from lower abdomen to the knee. All the things happened after needle test NFCA (fever, and more hard swelling). He can not move his right leg properly, he feels weak and sometimes pain in right leg. I read online that it is superficial Thrombophlebitis, anti-inflammatory tablets, cream, and gels can be applied or taken to reduce any pain Hope, my written details will give you enough idea regarding the problem. I am attaching all the reports with x-rays phone clicks and patient swelling leg photos. Please advise, to reduce the pain and swelling. Thanks.

I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you.
Thrombophlebitis is due to one or more blood clots in a vein that cause inflammation. Thrombophlebitis usually occurs in leg veins, but it may occur in an arm or other parts of the body. The thrombus in the vein causes pain and irritation and may block blood flow in the veins.
Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.

Thrombophlebitis without IV is a sign of advanced cance of stomach, pancreas etc.
If it is due to I.V. Or chemotherapy then it is just a side effect like any other, not related to advanced cancer. We usually use a surgically inserted port to give chemotherapy as it avoids the thrombophlebitis and also reduces the chances of infection.
Feel free to contact me directly if you want to discuss this further.

I dont think that you should go for Liposuction.Those people undergo this procedure who are having alarmingly excessive weight and their weight cannot be reduced by any other method other than liposuction as this technique becomes a last chance forsuch people.
One of the major side effects of liposuction is that it creates cardio diseases or problems like cardiac arrhythmia or cardiac arrests. It also results in heavy bleeding after the procedure which results in excessive fluid loss and kid...more
