Sounds troublesome: It appears that you are allergic the NSAIDS ( Non steroidal anti-inflammatory agents) the "mainstay" of the treatment of Osteoarthritis' You might consider EXERCISE....and perhaps complimentary methods of treatmment EG: acupuncture or message therapy. a visit to a Rheumatologist may be helppful!
