Madonna has sparked health fears after she was seen buying arthritis medication.
The 'Hung Up' singer - who religiously follows a tough workout regime - was recently seen purchasing Voltarol, which is an anti-inflammatory medication often prescribed for arthritis.
The 48-year-old was also said to have looked gloomy after leaving her gym recently.
One onlooker said: "Madonna definitely had something on her mind. Maybe she was in pain."
Health experts have warned the star's gruelling exercise regime - which reportedly includes regular three-hour workouts and running - could cause her serious health problems in the future.
Personal trainer Emma Katelee said: "Women in their 40's should not do the same amount of exercise as when they were younger, because their bones are more fragile."

This is ridiculous! Who cares if she takes an NSAID now and again. And these comments from 'health experts' who say working out vigorously may be detrimental to her health... Hello!?! Sounds like an allopath from the 1950's who would like to just find the magic pill to keep her 'healthy'. I can't believe this is news.

she probably just bought the anti-inflamatory stuff because she sprained or pulled a muscle and didnt want it to swell. i just saw her in concert; trust me, a woman who can dance and leap like that doesnt have arthritis.
