How can my father manage and treat his left knee pain when walking and climbing, given that he walks an hour daily, maintains his diet, and takes Aten 25 for high blood pressure and ca tablets?
Since he takes Aten 25 (atenolol) for blood pressure and calcium tablets, he should temporarily reduce high-impact activities like climbing and try shorter, flatter walks to rest the joint. Applying warm or cold compresses can help soothe the pain. Please consult a doctor or physical therapist to evaluate the knee. They can recommend safe strengthening exercises or appropriate pain relievers, as some common over-the-counter pain medications can affect blood pressure.
