since this is in the category alternative health, there are several options. Be aware that arthritis-though curable- is difficult to heal and takes about a year.

1. Glucosamine sulfate and congrotin (sp?)sulfate

2. Yucca (at least 6 caps)

3. Calcium/Magnesium (1500mg cal/750 mg ma)

4. Turmeric is an excellent inflammatory

5. Sour cherries (if gout)

6. the mucus less diet (see herbal legacy.com or book school of natural healing by John Christopher (Dr) plus his antiarthritus formula

8. A vegan diet is said to cure arthritis and a vegetarian diet will help a lot.

9. Drink raw apple cider vinegar (get at health food store) with water and either seasalt or raw honey (about 2 finger width of vinegar (salt or honey to taste). This limbers up and helps the joint.

Also apply warm fomentation (vinegar/water tea to a cloth and wrap on leg with plastic covering to hold on

This is the program I would use.

Answer 2

There are probably over 100 different kinds of arthritis. Without getting into a medical lecture...which I'm not THAT qualified to do...it's literally inflammation of the joint. It could be a genetic problem that you inherited from dear old Mom and Dad or aquired through illness or injury. In any instance, something is swelling up and it hurts. If cartalage is worn away it causes friction and then the swelling and pain. If it's an autoimmune problem then it's different. The glucosomine and chondroitin treatment is good (chondroitin is not as critical a need) for building back up worn down cartilage. That doesn't help with lubrication of the joints. Something that supplies the proper fluid to the joint would help there. I've seen excellent research on a special hyper-immune milk protein that seems to help. Reduces the inflammatory response and improves lubrication. Something to look into. As acknowledged earlier, this is an Alternative Med area so I wouldn't recommend the traditional stuff like Celelbrex. Most of those NSAIDs can be hard on the stomach for some folks. Hope this helps.
