Suggest Treatment For Severe Back Pain And Knee Problem

My mother suffers from serious back pain, I am looking for a specialist back Dr for non evasive treatment. Her MRI scan of my spine demonstrated degenerative spondylolisthesis of L5/S1. Any suggestions on how or where to treat my mother is 78. To further compound her difficulties she has double knee replacement which has left her in a worst situation one knee no longer working as it should. If she could walk this would aid her mental health greatly Diane

Degenerative arthritis is quite common in women in elderly age group above 60 years or more. For treatment you can take some pain killer like akilos-p or biozobid-plus only when pain is worse enough or disturbing your routine work. You can take some calcium supplements like shalcal 500 or toscal-gem along with some multivitamin like metilda-forte or meganeuron-plus. You can also do some physiotherapy exercises after an expert opinion of physiotherapist. You have to sleep on a plain surface as it is very helpful in case of back pain.
