Hello there.
if your father a hypertensive or a diabetic?
this condition requires further evaluation and a few tests also.
you can ask him to take a pain killer for symptomatic relief and also a capsule of b-complex vitamins.
consult a orthopedician regarding this so that he can evaluate his case further and also a few tests will needed to be undertaken.
kindly revert back with what orthopedician says.
Best Regards,
Dr. Anil Kumar Jain
