Knee Cartilage Disintegrated?

A 60 yr old aunt has been diagnosed by specialists that the cartilage of both her knees have disintegrated due to lack of calcium. Any remedy for this????

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
The cartilage covering the joints prevents friction and thereby development of arthritis. When the cartilage is gradually destroyed and the bone is also weakened due to osteoporosis or loss of calcium osteoarthritis is hastened.
With help of Homoeopathic medicines like Bryonia, Rhus tox, Mag phos we can alleviate the pain, with help of Calcarea flour, Calcarea phos the loss of calcium can be curtailed and to an extent bone can be strengthened too. With help of Osteoarthritic Nosode, Ruta, Symphytum etc. the cartilage can be helped from further degeneration.
If we can have more of her symptoms I am sure a course of medication can be suggested.
