Pain in joints
Sir my father who is 48 suffers from an ailment which causes some pain in joints, especially knees, after consuming Dairy products, especially curd. This problem has occurred only recently like a year or so. No other issue arises except pain in joints which subsides after sometime on its own. Please advice me as this is causing him to abstain from curd despite his strong liking for it. Thank you in advance
⢠Sports Taping- stretch the tape from both ends and apply on the affected area
⢠Contrast Fomentation (Hot and Cold).
⢠Contrast bath---It is a form of treatment in which knee is applied warm water followed by the immediate application of the knee with ice water. This procedure is repeated several times, alternating hot and cold. Note that the treatment should always end in the ice water, as heat will induce the body's inflammatory response, while cold helps to decrease inflammation.
