How Can Severe Pain In The Ankle Joint Be Treated?

Wife is disabled MS patient. Wheelchair bound. Recently broke her ankle making her less mobile. I am her primary care-giver. I am suffering pretty uncomfortable joint pain moving her around on Hoyer lift through the morning routine and changing clothes plus fixing breakfast. I keep going until she is set for the day but the discomfort to joints in hands and muscles is not pleasant. Short nap after breakfast seems to help, plus Advil. After nap and Advil things improve dramatically. Is it Oste or something else?

Hello,

Use ankle cap. You can take tablet combiflam with vitamin B-complex after food. Do not take it in empty stomach. You can take lactobacillus available in curd.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ashok Kumar Dash
