Is there a tablet that can replace the Penidure 12 lakh injections? I've been taking these injections since I was 5 years old, and I'm curious if there's an alternative.

View allI've been dealing with some joint and chest pains since I had chikungunya last month. They seem to come and go, sometimes they're really intense and other times not so much. Is this something that will eventually clear up on its own, or should I be doing something to help with the recovery? I'm just a bit worried and would appreciate any advice.
it will reduce

I'm really worried about my mom's health. Her ESR is high at 64 and her hemoglobin has dropped to 8.9. Two months ago, she had a blood transfusion and her hemoglobin was up to 10.8, but now it's gone back down. The doctor has her on Livogen XT, and for her vasculitis, she's taking Omnacortil 5 and MMF 101 BF. We see a rheumatologist every month, and he said not to worry about the ESR, that it will just be like that. Is this really okay? I'm just concerned and need some reassurance.
It sounds like your mothers condition is being managed carefully with the right medications, including Omnacortil and MMF for vasculitis. The low hemoglobin and high ESR can be concerning, but they are sometimes part of the ongoing inflammation or treatment effects in such conditions. It's important to follow her rheumatologist's advice and keep regular check-ups, as they are closely monitoring her health. If you're still concerned, dont hesitate to discuss further with her doctor.

I've been having a lot of knee joint pain and allopathy doctors are recommending surgery but I'm hesitant. Are there good ayurvedic treatment options in Bangalore that could help avoid surgery? What would you suggest for long-term relief?
Ayurvedic care and marma therapy may relieve knee pain but severe degenerative changes often benefit from guided physiotherapy or joint replacement eventually.
