Well may be he is suffering from osteoarthritis, steriod is not a treatment for this purpose, it will not cure it, rather repeated use of steriod can cause other problem, need to take an x-ray knee joint, have to do proper homoeopathic treatment to cure his problem, he is also having hlab27 positive soo back pain or lumber pain is there? All this will be cured by proper homoeopathic treatment soo you can contact me through Lybrate in private consultation.
