Artilage is commonly used in Osteoarthritis to help support joint cartilage, reduce stiffness, and improve joint movement gradually. It is generally used as a supportive medicine for long-term joint care rather than for immediate pain relief, so improvement may take several weeks. The dose and duration usually depend on age, pain severity, knee condition, other medical problems, and the exact composition of the tablet. Many people take it once or twice daily after food for several weeks or months, but the correct schedule should be decided by a doctor based on individual needs. Doctors may also combine it with pain-relieving medicines, physiotherapy, weight control, calcium, vitamin D, and strengthening exercises for better symptom improvement. Regular walking, avoiding excessive stair climbing, maintaining a healthy body weight, and using knee-support measures may also help reduce joint strain. Do not continue long-term joint medicines without periodic medical review, especially if you have kidney disease, liver disease, diabetes, or are taking multiple painkillers. Consult a doctor if swelling, severe stiffness, or difficulty walking continues despite treatment.

Knee pain is common in older adults and often happens because of arthritis, joint wear from ageing, stiff joints, weak muscles around the knee, or too much pressure on the joints. The pain can get worse when walking, climbing stairs, standing for a long time, or getting up after sitting. Over time, this may affect your confidence, balance, and ability to do daily activities. Simple care can help reduce discomfort and slowly improve how you move. Gentle physiotherapy, regular stretching, light walking, warm compresses, and exercises to strengthen the knee muscles can help support the joint and make it more flexible. Try to avoid climbing too many stairs, squatting, or standing for long periods, as these can put extra strain on your knees. If you are above your ideal weight, losing weight slowly can take pressure off painful joints. Wearing proper shoes and using support while walking can also help you feel more stable and reduce stress on your knees. Some people may need medicine, calcium or vitamin supplements, or injections, depending on what is causing the pain and how severe it is. Treatment should always be decided after a doctor?s evaluation. Inform a doctor if your knee swells, walking becomes very hard, your knee locks, or pain keeps getting worse even after regular care and exercise.
