Is Enzoflam And Cartyigen Right Medication For Knee Pain?
It has been a month since I had a fall and hurt the inner side of my knee. On my physician s advice I took enzoflam for 2 weeks and have started with cartigen forte. He has advised me to go for physio therapy. I am 54 yrs . Just needed to know if this is the right line of treatment. I am still in pain sometimes.

Hi,
Well.. they aren't bad. Cartigen is chondroitin ... cartilage... which generally does something for joint pain at very low risk. The other is an anti-inflammatory and can cause kidney or stomach problems but generally has some effect and most people tolerate it.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
