It may be due to age related osteoarthritis. However other reasons like rheumatoid must be ruled out. The treatment depends on condition of joint, extent of wear out seen on x ray and the factors like whether her bones are deformed or osteoporotic and also get weight. You must consult the orthopedic surgeon who specialises in joint disorders.
