Question

I'm 70 years old and dealing with really bad knee joint pain in both legs. Is there any way to treat this with Ayurveda? I don't want to get knee replacement surgery but the pain is so severe I can barely walk. What options do I have?

Question

I'm really worried about my mom's health. About a month ago, her ESR level was really high, around 120, when we took her to the doctor because she kept having back pain. They also told us she had low hemoglobin, and they gave her some meds to bring the ESR down. I just checked today, and it's now at 20, which seems better, but I'm still concerned. What are the chances she might have something serious like blood cancer or arthritis?
