"As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases."

Osteoarthritis is a chronic condition that causes joint pain due to premature cartilage wear.

A widespread disease, it frequently affects the joints of the knee, hip, spine and also attacks the ankle, shoulder, wrist, fingers.

There is no age to suffer from osteoarthritis but this condition often goes unnoticed before the age of 55. It mainly affects women.


What is the difference between osteoarthritis and arthritis?


Arthritis is a generic term for more than a hundred diseases that inflame joints, ligaments, tendons, bones.

Osteoarthritis is therefore a form of arthritis, which was called rheumatism before it was considered obsolete.


How to diagnose osteoarthritis?


Your doctor can detect osteoarthritis by asking you about your symptoms, by the intensity of the pain, the discomfort.
On examination, he will try to assess joint stiffness and can direct you to radiology.


How does osteoarthritis develop?


Its evolution is unique to everyone.

Indeed, this disease can evolve just as slowly over decades as it gets worse very quickly in a year or two by the destruction of cartilage.

It can also evolve over the long term by being punctuated by painful periods. It is during these inflammatory outbreaks that cartilage deteriorates. We must therefore take care to prevent these crisis.

What to do about osteoarthritis?


If it is difficult to control its evolution, it is desirable to treat pain, precisely because it aggravates the destruction of cartilage.

Basically, painkillers are the main drugs for osteoarthritis.
Local anti-inflammatory drugs and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are preferred.

New treatments have been indicated in recent years, these are the AntiArthrostic Symptomatics of Slow Action (AASAL).

Glucosamine sulphate, chondroid sulphate, avocado and soy extracts, diacerenin, hyaluronic acid are indicated to both relieve inflammation and attempt to slow the progression of the disease.

Personally, glucosamine and chondroin associated have yielded fairly conclusive results even if long-term cures are needed.

I let you read the reviews on the product I use (ad)

In case of intense arthrostic seizures, there is still the intra-joint injection of a long delayed corticosteroid.
Once the crisis is relieved, the injection of hyaluronic acid may be considered to improve both pain and mobility.


How to relieve osteoarthritis naturally?


Some natural remedies are also to be tested to relieve the pain generated by this degeneration.

– Analgesic plants

They should be preferred during arthrostic outbreaks:

– Meadowsweet
Canadian fleabane
– boswellia

In the long term, you can consider cures of harpagopythum or devil’s claw (ad).
The root of this plant is anti-inflammatory and analgesic.

Alternate heat and cold applications can also help.

– Remineralizing solutions

You can also try to remineralize with lithothamme or spirulina (algae), nettle and horsetail.

Organic silicium G5 (ad) is also indicated to relieve symptoms and slow progression.

– Anti-inflammatory spices

Ginger has anti-inflammatory effects

Cayenne pepper in the form of ointment provides relief

Feeding to the rescue of osteoarthritis


Some foods become alicaments and can contribute to this difficult battle against pain.

Cruciferous (cauliflower, broccoli, turnip) contain antioxidants and glucosilonates to fight inflammation. Give them a seat at your table at least twice a week.

Omega-3 are fatty acids to choose. They are found in nuts, flaxseeds, rapeseed oil, green vegetables, oily fish (sardine, salmon, herring, mackerel, anchovies).

You can also eat them as a dietary supplement so you never forget them like I do.

Olive oil has anti-inflammatory properties.

Cider vinegar seems to bring a marked improvement for those who consume 1 teaspoon in a glass of water each morning.
I admit for my part could not bear it at the digestive level but for those who can drink it without problem, it seems to be very effective.


Do you play sports when you have osteoarthritis?


Osteoarthritis hurts, but it must not stop us.

The only parade to effectively combat its evolution is to practice physical activity.

Of course, it is not appropriate to agitate during osteoarthritis outbreaks.

It is often advising to immobilize the joint until the pain subsides.

But this rest time should not be permanent.


What sport is indicated when you have osteoarthritis?


Prefer sports that do not involve brutal movements or supports.

– Cycling

– Running

Gymnastics

– Swimming

– Hiking

– Yoga

There are also devices to overcome persistent pain by stretching.
Personally, I really like the apartment rower (ad) that allows you to do gentle exercises, muscle your back in depth without surpassing your strength.

When it comes to sports to avoid, keep in mind that sudden movements are enemies and ban football, hand, rugby, basketball, skiing, tennis, squash, combat sports, weightlifting.


Osteoarthritis is not inevitable


When you suffer from this disease for the first time and suddenly learn that nothing can treat it, the future looks bleak.

But osteoarthritis is not inevitable if you oppose its evolution by learning to treat itself and especially at the time of arthrostic crisis.

By adjusting your diet and adding a few supplements while keeping you alert, you can reduce your symptoms. Some have even managed to stop its progress.

Once again, it’s about getting to know you well, listening to your body and doing the right things at the right time.
