<human>: I am going to have a knee replacement as soon as I can get an appointment for surgery, however, I am having terrible pain in my knee and hip and have not slept in several nights. I am allergic to codeine and wonder if there is anything I can do to relieve the pain.
<bot>: Hello, madam have studied your case. Take analgesic like Aceproxyvon and add tab methylcobalamine 1500mcg daily. Physiotherapy like ultrasound and tens will help, along with knee exercisesVISCOSUPPLEMENTATION: Hyaluronic acid injections given into the joint (especially large joints like knee joint) in prescribed dosages will give good short term pain relief in arthritic joints ranging from 1-2 years.
