Knee osteoarthritis

good evening

thank you for writing on health care magic

Well it looks like beginning of osteoarthritis. Yes you can take this medicine. It does provide supportive role for your joints and helps in a bit of lubrication but it s role is only 20/to 30 percent. to improve your joint status and to prevent further progression, most important is weight control, exercises and prevent stressful postures for the knees.

Secondly avoid any strong pain killers..Take ultracet or dolo as and when needed

hope the information was useful
