Have to find out the reason for leg pain. Rheumatoid arthritis if confirmed it requires a regular follow up. Better go for offline consultation.

Does she have joint pain or entire leg pain..
Joint pains can be treated with medications alone but the leg pain can arise from her spine/hips etc.. For which she needs clinical examination and further treatment..
