Hi, Target treatment should not be to lower ESR, it should be to make complete diagnosis and treatment. However, as raised ESR is concerned it is due to a lot of conditions just reflecting an inflammatory response of body. Get the complete arthritis profile of your father done which includes -X-rays of the affected part-Hgm-CRP-thyroid profile-serum vitamin D levels-RA factor-Anticcp-ANA-serum uric acid. Once you get the exact diagnosis then target the disease to be controlled or cured. ESR will automatically revert to normal. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
