Suggest Natural Remedies To Strengthen Knee Ligament

When I was a child I had a poliio attack. My parents took me to a Siddha doctor who prescribed an oil to be applied every day. I could walk after that and though there is a slight growth problem and general weakness on my left leg, I could run, play sports etc. My left leg is slightly thinner at the thigh area and about an inch short than the right leg. Now I am 37 years old and I feel very weak on my left leg. Frequently I trip and fall, while walking, climbing down stairs and sometimes even when standing. I recently met a friend who practices EMIT therapy. She checked me out and tells me that if I could strengthen my ligaments in my knee, the siutation could improve and my left leg would feel stronger.

Are there herbal medicines to strengthen my knee ligaments?

muscle or ligament weakness need lot of massage with particular sneha[oil].here in your case i am of the opinion that you need vasa ie is the fat which accumulates on the surface of water when mausa[meat] pieces are boiled in excess of water.the fat that collects on the surface should be collected and applied to the weak leg and profuse massage should be given.parthive dravya like ashwagandha,mausa rasa,udad dal should be a part of your diet.
