Suggest Treatment Option For Arthritis

My mother suffers from arthritis and every autumn till end of winter has burning sensation on her body. Why is this and what can be done. Is there medication that can be taken. Also has history of high bp and had angioplasty years ago so is on a lot of medications. Is it side effect of all these drugs

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Arthritis is caused due to wear and tear of the cartilages involved in the joints and not due to medications taken for high blood pressure or for cardiac problems.
You can try giving her preparations containing Glucosamine and pro-bone vitamins with minerals as ingredient, so that it would help nourish the joint and help to restore proper lubrication and functioning of bones and cartilages.
Kindly consult Orthopedician for proper evaluation and advise regarding the same.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
