Suggest Treatment For Knee Pain Relief
My left knee has been playing up for some time,I have been to the emergency dept of the hospital, they gave me pain killers, we thought it was gout,but this has been going on now for a month and a half. Could it be heading for a knee replacement op, the pain today was terrible, I cannot get up or dress myself, cannot sit, only comfortable in a lying position. I have been taking voltaren pills, codeine is good for the pain, have taken ibuprofen gel and tablets,I cannot go on anymore, what do you think?

Hi,Welcome to Health care magic forum.
It appears that you have osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or gout,etc.
I advise you to consult an orthopedic surgeon for diagnosis and treatment.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms neurotropic injections for 10 consecutive days, and then periodically along with other medicines.
Avoid taking potato,other tubers, tomato,egg, chicken,and sea foods,till the pains are completely cleared.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
