HI
Thank fro choosing HCM
I really appreciate your concern, I would advise to give your uncle any simple pain killing pills, if I would be his doctor then I would treat your uncle with the following drugs,
1) Tab Acetaminophen 500 mg three times in day
2) Tab Diclofenac 50 mg sustain release once in day
This is not be given for long term basis but just for symptomatic relief, I hope you can understand this, have nice day.
