All NSAIDs increase risk of thrombosis. You should try alternative approach like diet for all around improvement. I suggest you discuss your diet on phone with me. Best wishes.

I am bishnu from odisha & this is regarding my mother age 57 yrs. Since last 7 months she is having problems like hand pain, foot pain, knee pain upper back pain. And all these r sensational pain like pain in nerves. Unable to hold a glass tightly & d time she leave d glass, d nerves pain. Even after 15 to 30 minutes of continuous sitting/sleeping it's very difficult to stand & hands and foot also pain severely. After doctors consultation (immunology & rheumatology), she is taking medicines since last 6 months. After lockdown we tried to contact same doctor through phone call, but couldn't. But d nurse/assistant advise to continue d medicines. And last 4 months she is taking d same medicines continuously. In between, around 15 to 20 days she couldn't take medicines becoz of unavailability. And the symptoms got worsen. Medicines details - defza 6 tab, transgaba nt 400 tab, etova 400 tab, pantodac 40 tab, hcqs 300 tab, nanofast gel, telmikind 40 tab. So my question is whether it is safe to continue d medicines? Bcoz all medicines r having some side effects. And she can't even stop taking them bcoz it worsen the symptoms. As hospital (sum hospital, bhuvaneshwar) is far away from our village, it is not possible to visit during this period. Please help with your valuable advice. Thank u, bishnu.

Hello Mr. lybrate-user, probably your mother was diagnosed having rheumatoid arthritis which needs prolonged treatment. But continuing the aforementioned medicines (especially etodolac, deflazacort and pregabalin) without monitoring is not at all suggested.
Better you consult nearest available pain and rheumatology specialist. Or you can consult me online.
Take care.

Hope your plasma treatment is helping. Other two medications you r taking is mainly pain killers. You can gradually stop those and see how effective is plasma treatment. As it’s new modality, it’s still under trails. No significant good results to everyone.
If it doesn’t work, probably needs knee replacement surgery. Best wishes.

Thanks for sharing your query. NSAID alone is not recommended to treat RA. Our goal is to withdraw pain killer as soon as possible. Plz consult your Rheumatologist for anti arthritic medicines. Kindly visit www.jaipurrheumatologist.com for further information

Yes u can stop it anytime u want. But when a doctor prescribe medications for a week, we have some reason behind it. If a medicine can reduce pain in a single dose, y would we ask to take it for a week.

A person can ease the symptoms of cervical pain/spondylosis with a few simple neck exercises.
1. Neck stretch
keep your body straight.
Push your chin forward in a way that stretches the throat.
Softly tense the neck muscles.
Hold this for 5 seconds.
Return your head to its center position.
Push your head back with the chin held high, and hold for 5 seconds.
Carry out 5 repetitions.
2. Neck tilt
