Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
Arthritis and osteoporosis is often associated with chronic pains. The pain killers and hot fomentation brings some relief in 2-3 weeks. Doing physiotherapy under the guidance of a physiotherapist would be best.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
