My right knee accidentally hit the toilet seat when I slipped. I applied Zambuk ointment for 8 days and A-Bruzzy Gel for 1 day. I can't deal with this any longer so I went to see a doctor and he prescribed me 50mg Diclofenac Voltaren tablets and Mobithron Advance capsules. After taking 4x 50mg doses of Diclofenac Voltaren tablets and 2x vegetable capsules of Mobithron Advance capsules for 1 night and 1 day, I experienced side effects such as heartburn, a fast heartbeat, trouble sleeping, etc. I stopped taking them after 1 night and 1 day when I realized I was having trouble sleeping. I think Diclofenac Voltaren is the culprit. After 2 days, I believe the side effects are gradually disappearing.

Should I continue taking Diclofenac Voltaren tablets? Currently, I don't feel pain in my right knee when walking but I do feel a sensation on it. Additionally, I feel something on my left knee since the medication circulates through my body. After reading these two articles:When NSAIDs make pain worse and other side-effects and Anti-inflammatory medication side-effects – accelerated knee osteoarthritis, I’m wondering if Diclofenac Voltaren tablets are damaging my knees. Has anyone tried Mobithron Advance capsules before as it is made in Malaysia? Will it help with my knee problem?

just take the mobithron blue one would do... it's in powder form...

also this just help fix and maintain the knee as long as you're taking it... maintain the cartilage. works for my mom...

for you when you slip and fall... if swollen.. .need to do some ice compression.. if not liquid would build up on the knee area... and it would affect healing...

But my doctor already prescribed me Mobithron Advance capsules. Is there any difference? It's just a different form right?

The article says that taking NSAIDs like Diclofenac Voltaren tablets can damage articular cartilage. Is that true? If not, should I continue taking it?

What do you mean by "if not, liquid would build up in the knee area"? Are you referring to Mobithron P?

If got side effects stop taking them and consult your doctor for alternatives.

I already stopped taking Diclofenac Voltaren tablets 4 days ago but side effects such as heartburn are still present and are currently causing me to cough.

U must injection nsaid to your knee, inject surrounding knee areas. All should shrinking down

I wish you are getting better by now. If not, try to find info on MSM. They says it works on both healing and pain reduction.
