Aquatic therapy could work it's the therapy in water I'm Internationally certified Aquatic therapist also acupuncture will work .Steroidal injection should be taken only if it's unbearable pain. I would suggest to go for physiotherapy and Aquatic therapy can definitely relieve the symptoms .Later on if she still has unbearable pain u can go for steroidal injection that too only if your orthopaedic doctor has advised
Next Steps
Do regular physiotherapy and Aquatic Therapy
