Hello,
Dr gupta, AMway offers food supplements and not medicine. So there is nothing you can get from there apart from calcium. I would recommend you following.
1.Get fresh x ray in standing position.
2.You can send those x rays to me , I can tell you if she need any surgery or medicines will be sufficient.
3.Hot water fomentation, volini gel local application.
4.Static quadriceps exercises.
5.Avoid squatting and sitting cross leg.
I hope this answer will be helpful for you.Let me know if there is any other followup questions.
thanks
