How can we protect our joints and bones during
COVID
According to research more about 40 of the
patients who had history of COVID experience pain
and swelling of one or more joints. If COVID-19 S
ituation Continues then it should can definately
affect the bone Joint Health. As the COVID-19
situation continues to evolve, it becomes even
more important to find ways to take care of
health and be safe.  The ongoing lockdown has
not only disrupted our emotional well-being but
has also drastically affected our physical
health. Lack of physical movement is the biggest
worry amid lockdown irrespective of the age
bracket and can affect bone and joint health,
besides other health problems. As people are in
their homes, their muscles and bones are not
getting appropriate stimulation which is
affecting their bone health. Everyone needs to be
cautious about the health of their bones as much
as their other needs. Bones support us and allow
us to be mobile. Bone health is one of the most
important systems of our body .

Weaker bones or joints can never hold a healthy
body, hence looking after our bone health becomes
vital in improving our quality of life especially
during Covid-19. 
Steps one Should Take to keep bones and joints
healthy-

• Keeping a regular check on body weight so that it
  doesnt put extra pressure on joints and keeps
  the muscles and joints healthy.

• Exercise (Aerobic/Anaerobic) every day which can
  help create some movement in  body and also help
  in maintaining bone strength.
• Pay attention to posture and always avoid bending
  in inappropriate ways.
• Make sure your home environment is easy to move
  around with very fewer obstacles that could lead
  to deadly falls.
• Do not stop taking any medication or treatment
  prescribed by doctor in case you have any bone
  diseases like Arthritis, Osteoporosis or other. 
• Avoid Tobacco and limit alcohol use. Research
  suggests that tobacco use lowers the bone density
  which leads to osteoporosis.
• Consume a healthy diet that has the right mix of
  carbs, protein, fiber and other important
  nutrients.

In simple words just set a routine for yourself
which has a mix of all the above-mentioned points
that will not only help you stay healthy at home
but will protect your bones and joints. Although
it is difficult to maintain a healthy lifestyle
while we are in the midst of an epidemic, its
important that we do take care of our wellbeing,
staying inside and wearing a mask, dont forget
to drink a lot of water, avoid junk food and eat
fruits and nuts for a better and healthier
tomorrow.

Some of the preventive measures that could be
taken are 

• Applying ice on injured area and resting
• Physical therapy
• Staying active
• Taking Prescribed medications on time
• Supplements(as prescribed by the doctor)
• Losing weight

Earlier, before this pandemic  people use to
travel to work, do their daily routine exercise,
go out  to meet their friends but unfortunately
in the past few months, all these things have
been restricted which has limited the physical
movement and has initiated lethargy. Its better
to schedule your routine and include physical
activities for a healthy lifestyle.
