You can consult an orthopedician.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The bone scan is suggestive of stress related changes in the joints causing the pain. These changes are difficult to reverse but further progression can be retarded with pain medications and physical therapy.
A few simple dietary changes, like reducing refined carbohydrates and sugar, can make a dramatic difference in your joints. Eating more fruits and vegetables, which contain natural anti-inflammatories, and adding a high-quality multivitamin to fill any nutritional gaps will also help.
A high-quality omega-3 fatty acid supplement is also recommended.
You can consult an orthopedician for proper supplements and pain management.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Praveen Tayal.
