Mouthwash vs. Osteoporosis

I don't know if this is true, but it is very suspicious.

I found that my molar tooth might have a cavity. We thought that it will help me to prevent teeth cavity if I use mouthwash twice per day after lunch and before sleep, so we went to buy one bottle of LISTERINE® TOTAL CARE Anticavity Mouthwash last Thursday night.

I used it in Thursday night and Friday noon, then I had a terrible pain in the left side of my left knee in Friday night. It is a one-spot type of pain. I forgot to use it in Friday night and the weekend, then the pain was gone on Sunday.

I used it again in this Monday night and Tuesday noon, then I got another terrible pain on several spots in the left side of my left knee in Tuesday night. It is so painful that I almost couldn't stand up and walk well with my left leg.

We are wondering if this pain is a osteoporosis due by mouthwash I used, so I did not use the mouthwash yesterday and my pain has been relieved very much now. The reason that we are suspicious my pain is caused by this mouthwash is because it contains fluoride and fluoride will increase the chance of osteoporosis.

What should I do now? I want to prevent teeth cavity, but I don't want osteoporosis. I still don't want the pain even it is not due to osteoporosis.
