Suggest Alternate Over The Counter Medication For Predmet And Zobid
Question: my father is effected with scatica and doctor suggested to repacement of hip joints and he is taking predment 4 and zobid from three years plz suggest any alternative solution.thanks.
Brief Answer:
Surgery is the best alternative forms of therapy
Detailed Answer:
Hello, Sir.
I can certainly understand your concerns.
I have worked through your query and attached report in detail.
PREDMENT and ZOBID can improve symptoms but cannot offer cure nor prevent the progression of the Sciatica.
Hip replacement is definitely an option to consider in his case, as it will offer a cure.
Likewise, it is important to get a surgical therapy for wedge compression.
Please check with your physician if he shares my view and if can prescribe this therapy to him.
Alternative form of therapy is only surgery.
Post your further queries if any.
Thank you.
