Hello,
I have studied your case.
Yes you need to take daily for at least 3 months.
At age of 70 if there is early degeneration then only it will work. No relief in moderate or severe cases.
Precaution to be taken
Activity modifications-avoid squatting, avoid cross leg sitting on floor, and reduce stair climbing.
Weight reduction is very important to prevent progression.
Do daily exercises and stretches.
Diet rich in calcium and vitaminD will help to reduce progression.
