    An old lady from Gujarat Mrs.N.D aged 62 years (PIN:10574) visited Life Force clinic on 10th April 2008 for the treatment of Osteoarthritis knee. She was diagnosed to have osteoarthritis since two years. She had pain in calf muscle more specifically in the popliteal fossa. The pain was more in the right knee compared to the left knee. Her complaints would get worse after stretching the legs. She was taking pain killers as per need and took injectables when the pain was not under control with pain killers. She was advised to undergo surgery for her right knee, but the patient was scared to undergo surgery in such old age and was trying to manage pain with allopathic medicines and some natural herbal medicines.
