Weak body of grandmother

2020-11-25 14:45:29
My grandmother is 85 years old. Her back is bended. She walks very slow and needs support while walking. She never had any type of disease , not even fever (as far as I know). But her body is very weak. She finds it very hard to sit or get up after sitting. Is there any medication to help her a bit.

She probably has degenerated spine disease , if any X-rays are available would be of greater help
