How do I deal with the pain and stiffness of osteoarthritis?

Question

I'm still young, but suffering from osteoarthritis. Lots of pain (on movement) and stiffness. I feel like a rusty old hinge. I don't want to start taking prescription medications for this. Instead, I'm looking for some lifestyle changes or natural solutions.

Answer 2

Try this

You can either cut down a towel or use a hand or dish towel. sew the three sides like your making a pillow, put inside long grain rice as a filler. Only enough to fill 1/4 to1/3 (or more if you'd like) of the inside. Finish sewing up. Now you can either place in the freezer for 20-30 min + or stick it in the microwave for seconds to minutes until the temp you want. The rice bag will hold the temp for quite a while and will mold around your body. Great for any pain or discomfort and will last forever as long as you don't get it wet. Hang in there and good Luck!!!

Answer 3

the best treatment for your condition is physical therapy. You can ask your medical doctor for a good physical therapist. If you have access to Jacuzzi use it daily. If not take a hot bath every evening with 2c. of dissolved epsom salts and so for 30 minutes. This will help you not feel as stiff in the morning.

Advil soft gel capsules are fast acting and would help you deal with the pain. Take these four times daily.

Many people get relief by using fish oil capsules, two capsules three times daily.

I've enclosed a link that has natural herbal remedies for osteoarthritis.

Answer 4

I have a family history of arthritis and I take a mix glucosamine, chondrotin, and MSM. You can find one pill that has all of these if you just spend a minute or two reading labels. I personally use Osteo Bi-Flex 3x strength. However, she also should be taking an additional supplement for bone health. Unfortunately, the best way to figure some of this out is to just try different supplements until she is happy with the results. Everyone responds differently.

Try supplementation. I introduced a woman with osteoarthritis to a supplement in powder form. She is now pain free. You can write me at [e-mail] about it.

Answer 8

Hello, if you are looking for "natural solution" you might like to look into Tahitian Noni Juice. It is 100% natural consists of 89% pure noni and 11% grape and blueberry juice.

The Tahitian Noni Juice is an "immune booster", it will not cure but it will relieve the pain and stiffness.

Before taking the Tahitian Noni Juice my husband would go down stairs backwards because of the osteoarthritis in his knees - now he is up and down ladders, stairs, and able to move comfortably without the pain and stiffness.

It is definitely worth checking out, because it does work. If you would like more information please contact us.
