Question: First and foremost thing, kindly suggest:

1) Must and should I have to take Cartigen forte one tab and Diacerin 1 cap every day.
2) Which pain killer is good. You suggested for Gabapentin (is it plain, 100 gm, NT 100gm or NT 400gm)
3) Doctor you told that regeneration is not possible. Kindly suggest me can I take till getting 60 years (now I am 47 yrs) every year I have to get it done injection. If so, kindly tell which is the best one and who will do it? For how many days once I have to take injection. I think there are no side affects If I get the injection done. Because my priority is Doctor, there is no respite means regeneration is not possible the only thing is I want to go for injection. Kindly suggest
4) Of course, I have been doing phsiotherapy as instructed by the Doctors. Apart fromI am going to start walking, gym and swimming.
5) Doctor, kindly tell me in life i can't run like earlier.
6) Apart from above kindly suggest exactly what medicines I have to take, which injection, diet, exercise and any thing apart from this.

Brief Answer:
Just a healthy life style

Detailed Answer:
dear sir
few things you have to remember is
1) once cartilage is gone it goes for ever and no medicine can regenerate it.
2) taking injections routinely is not advisable as they deteriorate further your cartilage.
3) injection are only work as pain killers nothing else
4) taking too much of pain killers are not advisable
5) only exercises which will help you is quadriceps strengthening exercises however they will also not regenerate cartilage ,it just gives you a bit relief in your pain
6) and if you are too much symptomatic go for replacement surgery rather doing hit and trial methods
thanks
