Hi, my mother is 65 yrs old from last one year she is suffering from knee pain her knee bone is increase little bit due to which she was unable to walk, sit properly so please give me some advice what to do ?

Hello, thanks for your query and welcome to lybrate. I am Dr. Akshay from fortis hospital, new delhi. At your mother's age it is possible for advanced degenerative changes to have set in the joint, and that could be a cause for recurrent inflammation and painful episodes. Please tell me duration of pain and what are aggravating factors? how much distance can you walk and what is the analgesic requirement to carry out activities of daily routine? what medications you generally take and what has been your treatment history till now for existing problem. I also need to see your latest knee x rays so that I know what grade of arthritis are we dealing with on your case? do not hesitate to contact me if you need any further assistance.
