Hi Welcome to healhcaremagic After going through your query I concluded that you are having arthritis with some overweight. For weight reduction you should take low fat diet. You should exercise daily. For arthritis Diacerine and glucosamine are useful. Analgesic such as ibuprofen are helpful in pain reduction. You can discuss your doctor about it. Hope your query get answered. If you have any clarification then please don't hesitate to write to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.
