Arthritis

[ibmack]

if you truly have arthritis, you need to go to a rhematologist. I have a pretty bad case and the medication they have available now is totally different than what was available years ago. real arthritis will not be helped by over the counter medicines and herbs and you don't need to try to treat it yourself.

There is not much available for osteoarthritis. Arthritis, Osteoarthritis Treatments to Try Now - AARP

Big difference between the type arthritis a person may have.

Wife has it pretty good, and she uses a product called Real Time Pain Relief (RTPRdotcom) and says she gets good results from it. Mine is not as bad as her, so some ibuprofen works for me, but I don't take it daily. I usually snap, crackle and pop in the morning, but it usually quietens down as the day goes along.

When my hands start hurting a little I mix up some mustard, ketchup and cayenne pepper and use it on sandwiches. It helps. It is the pepper that does the trick but cannot take it straight.

Drink Pickle Juice...about two tablespoons a day.

I'm with Bill Bob. I have multiple fractures and injuries from many years of not talking care of myself like I should have. Arthritis has invaded all weaker areas of my body. Anti inflammatory meds such as naproxen are a big help but I haven't found any thing that gives relief like alcohol preferably Jim Beam. If I hada know I was gonna live this long I woulda took better care of myself when I was young Yeah!!!

Probably the vinegar in the pickle juice.

One tablespoon of raw honey, preferably locally produced, and one teaspoon of cinnamon on a piece of toast or in a cup of coffee every morning is a real good natural anti inflammatory.

My VA doctor says I have osteoarthritis and it's showing up in all those places I have damaged throughout my working career. So much for "walk it off" when those bumps and bruises and breaks happened back then. First...Meloxicam...swear it was a placebo...did absolutely nothing to help. Then Salsalate. S'posed to be much better. Nothing...no help at all. I think they're giving me sugar pills. Aleve does more but they advise against a lot of that because of liver damage over time. What's a guy (or gal) to do? Just grin, or wince, and bear it I guess?

I wake up every morning hurting like U no what. I have tried all the OTC meds. Tumeric spice is the only thing that helped me.
