You can use Rhus Tox 30/6 times a day But if she needs to take pain killers every day n knee is damaged, Then you should think about replacement. Don't forget to take a second opinion.

Hello. It would be better if I could see the X rays. Any how the severity of the damage dictates the treatment. It starts with knee strengthening exercises and may be a joint replacement surgery, if the damage is very severe.
