Knee Pain, Unable To Stand For Long. On Hifenac-p. Do I Have Side Effects?

Hi,

I am a female 33yrs old and have been experiencing pain in both my knees if i stand for long hours in the morning. I experience the same pain when i climb stairs. One of my friends who is a doctor adviced me to use hifenac-p twice a day after food. Does this have any side effects or is it safe to use. Please clarify

Dear Friend
Hifeanc p is a pain killer. NSAID. So has numerous side effects like acidity, gastric ulcers, kidney problems and lot more.

At this age if you are having knee pain its unlikely to be osteoarthritis, but we should know the reason of pain before treating it.

Please tell me, how it started, how it gets relived.
Do tell us do you have morning stiffness.

Do you had some loose motions in preceeding months.
Any other joint is involved?

Write to us.. we will make you disease free.
