Arthritis pain is one of the many conditions that physicians help treat, and it involves inflammation of the joints due to cartilage loss.
Weight is a common factor in the symptoms of arthritis. The extra weight causes a strain on your joints, specifically your hips, knees and feet. Therefore, it is best to lose weight to further reduce the strain on your joints and help increase your mobility.
Exercise is fundamental to the management of your arthritis. This is because of its immense benefits as it helps make your joints flexible and adds to your support by strengthening the muscles around your joints.
Acupuncture is also another treatment option for arthritis and may work in relieving pain in select individuals. If you wish to consider this option, please discuss it first with your doctor. .
