简要总结
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis, affecting millions of people worldwide. It occurs when the protective cartilage that cushions the ends of the bones wears down over time. Although osteoarthritis can damage any joint, the disorder most commonly affects joints in your hands, knees, hips and spine.
Osteoarthritis symptoms can usually be managed, although the damage to joints can’t be reversed. Staying active, maintaining a healthy weight and receiving certain treatments might slow progression of the disease and help improve pain and joint function 1.
Kneesol Oil is an advanced proprietary Ayurvedic medicine indicated for effective management of Pain & inflammation of knee and joints associated with Osteoarthritis. The Oil is rational combination of clinically reported potent anti-inflammatory & analgesic herbs formulated in a fixed oil by following traditional Ayurvedic processing methods. The ingredients of kneesol oil are Zinziger officicnale, Allium sativa, Trachyspermum ammi and Trigonella foenum-graceum. The phytochemical constituents like flavonoids, phenols, thymol and the active substances like selenium, allicin and organosulfur are responsible for suppressing or inhibiting the inflammatory pathways and thus decreasing the oxidative stress, thereby modulating the pain and inflammation caused by the osteoarthritic.
