Title: Rheumatoid Arthritis Pain Symptoms & Treatments - IPMC


1
ARTHRITIS PAIN Causes, Types Treatments
2
ARTHRITIS PAIN
  • Arthritis is a group of painful and degenerative
    conditions marked by inflammation in the joints
    that causes stiffness and pain.
  • Rheumatoid arthritis is caused by the immune
    system attacking the joints as if they were
    foreign tissues. Because of this, rheumatoid
    arthritis is classified as an autoimmune disease.

ARTHRITIS PAIN
  • Osteoarthritis, the most common type of
    arthritis, gets worse with age.
  • Typical treatments include anti-inflammatory
    medications and pain killers. IPMC manages and
    reduce arthritis pain through a much more
    comprehensive and natural approach.

Natural Tips Treatments
  • Lose Weight Extra weight puts more pressure on
    your joints especially your knees, hips, and
    feet. Reducing the stress on your joints by
    losing weight will improve your mobility,
    decrease pain, and prevent future damage to your
    joints. You will see even greater results from
    following an anti-inflammatory diet, as the right
    foods can help to reduce the inflammation causing
    arthritis pain.

  • Exercise There are more benefits to exercise
    than just weight loss. Regular movement helps to
    maintain flexibility in your joints.
    Weight-bearing exercises such as running and
    walking can be damaging. Instead, try low-impact
    exercises such as water aerobics or swimming to
    flex your joints without adding further stress.

  • Hot and Cold Therapy Simple hot and cold
    treatments can make a world of difference when it
    comes to arthritis pain. Long, warm showers or
    baths especially in the morning help ease
    stiffness in your joints. Use an electric blanket
    or moist heating pad at night to keep your joints
    loose. Cold treatments are best for relieving
    joint pain, swelling, and inflammation. Wrap a
    gel ice pack or a bag of frozen vegetables in a
    towel and apply it to painful joints for quick
    relief.
