Dear Sir
Thank you for posting your query on HCM
Well looking into your query I will like to tell you that treatment of your mother seems fine. She is having osteoarthritis of both knees, these are age related changes and will progress. If the pain is more and swelling is present she can take cortisone injections in the knee. They might help her plus physiotherapy will be vital for her . Any doubts please ask.
