hi adayani
omnacortil is very useful in arthritis if taken according to doctor
it is steroid drug and u must not take it urself at any cause.
u have develop its side effect,.
u must consult doctor fo this
dont stop it suddenly as it will create more problem.
weight gain ,bone problem, acne.
high bp ,high cholesterol,
liver ,kidney damage etc.
it is one of the best and worst drug.
dont be scare of it ,u will be out of the problem gradually.

welcum to healthcaremagic

in physiotherapy sum modalities are thr by tht ur pain will cum down.

and sum manipulation techniques , by tht ur stiffness will be reduce and ur joints become more mobile.

so better u go n consult a physio near by.

and for medication u consult to an orthopedician.
