Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Can you tell me what is the best medicine to take for on going pain for osteoarthritis? I am 66 years old and have had this problem for the past 5 yrs. I have had a knee replacement on my right knee & two ankle fusion on each foot. My left knee along with my hips are almost daily pain & stiffness for me. I am allergic to Nsaids which cause me stomach problems & itching. I have been through physical therapy after each 3 surgeries. It he!led at the time but now the arthritis just keeps moving thru my body. Please help. Doctors seem to want to give these antidepressive & seizures drugs more than anything these days. I' be tried a few including the last thing I took, Cymbalta with no relief, but grogginess & tiredness!
