Hi, This is for my Father. He is 75 years old and pretty healthy for his age. We had done a health check at apollo a month back and found out he has a little high BP issue and arthritis. The distance between the knee bones have reduced as per my understanding. Doctor has referred the following medicines and told us to take the test for BP and XRay for knee and consult a doc after a month. Following are the medicines: 1. Flavojoint-twice daily 2. oxygen gel- twice daily 3. For BP- T. Tazaloc AM- once daily. But still now he is not recovered fully for both BP and arthritis. So we need to know whether we should continue with the medicine or not. If to continue, till how many months we need to take it. Regards.

Hi Hypertension and knee arthritis both issues are chronic and long term in nature requiring almost life long treatment. For more information on BP control you should seek MD medicine specialist opinion. Regarding knee arthritis I will elaborate more. Cartilage loss in knee leads to osteoarthritis knee. Ointments, analgesics tide over pain increase Cartilge supplements reduce rate of wear and tear Daily swimming for 20 min Physiotherapy Will help to moderate extent in mild to moderate arthritis For advanced arthritis surgical treatment such as total knee Arthroplasty is treatment of choice Hope this helps.
