I'm a bit confused about the difference between Lupin Lumenac 600 Tablet and Lumenac 600 Capsule. Are they basically the same, or is there some important distinction I should be aware of? I'm trying to figure out if it matters which one I use.

My mom has been dealing with arthritis for 10 years her left leg posture has changed, and now her right leg hurts too. It got worse when her finger joints started acting up. Homeopathy didn't help, and allopathic painkillers caused digestion issues and loss of appetite. An orthopedic surgeon suggested knee surgery, but Ayurveda fixed her fingers, though her knees stay swollen and painful. I'm not sure if nonsurgical options even work for this kind of arthritis. With Covid around, hospital visits are tough, especially since we're far from cities. I'm looking into video consultations but don't know which specialist would be best could exercise, diet, meds, or injections help, or is surgery the only option?

ortho opinion is advised to the patient at apollo hospital.

I've been dealing with chest pain for a while now, and it sometimes comes with back pain as well. I've seen a few doctors, including an orthopedic, a cardiologist, and a general doctor, but each time they said there's no problem and just gave me painkillers. The pain still hasn't completely gone away. I recently visited a rheumatologist, and they suggested I take Gabapin NT for a month. Is this medication safe to use? I've also read online that it might cause weight gain. Could that be true? I'm a bit worried and would appreciate any advice.

Patient is advised to ootinue tablet gabapin NT once a day for atleast 3 months.

Why does using fastum gel make my lower left leg hurt even more? My doctor recommended it for my muscle pain, but it seems to be causing more discomfort. I'm curious to know why this is happening.

While Fastum gel is generally effective for relieving muscle pain, it might be causing irritation or heightened sensitivity in your case, especially if your skin is already inflamed. discontinue use and consult your doctor for advice on alternative treatments. They may want to reassess your condition to ensure the best approach to managing your leg pain.
