Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have studied your case. Pain in both knee joints is due to knee arthritis. Before I advise you any thing, I would like to know little detail of the illness.
1. Can you send me her current knee x rays in weight bearing positions.
2. Is she obese or having Diabetes?
3. Is she taking regular pain killers ?
Please send me answers of these questions. I will try my best to help you.
Thanks
