What Is The Treatment For Arthritis?

I have had arthritis for many years, I have been wearing the arthritic shoes for some time. I had no problem getting them in Mi. I have moved to Az, and now have a problem. My foot Dr. says i need a form from my regular Dr. My regular Dr. says i need a form from my foot Dr. I have asked both several times for a form. But as yet i have not received one. Perhaps this is because of yet another change in medicare? Who do i get this form from please.

Orthopaedic Surgeon, Joint Replacement,  's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for your query.
your pain is due to Arthritis. When bone is not able to take weight due to arthritis than it has to be shared by muscles.
Also some time it can be due to nerve compression. You can judge your self. If your pain increases on walking and relieved with rest, it is suggestive of nerve related pain.
Arthritis pain is present even when you are taking rest.
I will suggest you following.
Hot water fomentation.
Volitran ointment
Tablet Pregabalin M one daily at night time .
Calcium and vitmin D3 daily.
Tablet Tramadol one daily.
Please consult your doctor before taking those medicines.

I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query.
Take care
