Seems there is arthritis or osteo arthritis in the offing. Initially , when there is no pain, do some physiotherapy, Yoga postures and external liniment gentle massage to do away with pain.

Popping pain killer pills will lead you to depend on such drugs and disease will keep on increasing. Once in a while is okay.

For long run only Ayurveda med should be used. Cap Shigru, Rumalya DS tabs, Cap Haridra ( turmeric) and Rumalya liniment as well as gut cleansing Tarunikusumakar chooran may be used.

It's difficult to cure such diseases fully once established. Med of whatever system you adopt, will go for years. Better to take naturals to avoid side effects.

Hope you get my point.
