Pls tell me how can I help my ammi.

Question

Mr. Lybrate-user, first thing is her diabetes and hypothyroidism should be well controlled, otherwise it is difficult to get relief. Her fasting blood glucose should be closer to 100 mg, pp 150 to 160 mg / 100 ml & hba1c% <7. Tsh levels should be between 3 to 4 mu/l. If these values are achieved and maintained most of the symptoms can be brought in control including joint pain & pain in feet. If pains still persist and if she also has burning feet then certain drugs plus methylcobalamine can be used. It will be better if you come in a private conversation with full details like fasting, pp glucose levels, hba1c%, tsh & t4 levels, current drugs and dosage and extent of daily exercise plus dietary pattern. Then I will be able to guide specifically.

Start hot saline fomentation followed by volini gel and knee and ankle exercises. Use soft footware.

Quadriceps exercises- lie straight, make a towel role and put it under the knee, press the keen against the role, hold it for 20 secs. Repeat 20 times twice a day. This will help relieve some pain. Core strengthening exercise- straight leg raised with toes turned outward, repeat 10 times, twice a day.
Hams stretching- lie straight, take the leg up, pull the feet towards yourself, with a elastic tube or normal belt. Repeat 10 times, twice a day.
