Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Maintain a healthy body weight because obesity can lead to joint pain. Please avoid strenuous exercise as it may aggravate your arthritis-related joint pain. Instead, you can stretch and engage in low-impact aerobic activities such as treadmill walking, biking, and swimming. Lifting light weights can also help to improve your muscle strength.
  • Increase your intake of glucosamine, chondroitin sulphate, vitamin D, and calcium-rich supplements. Aside from that, turmeric and fish oils can help to reduce tissue inflammation.
  • Include fish such as salmon, trout, tuna, and sardines in your diet if you have arthritis or joint pain. These fish are high in omega-3 fatty acids, which aid in the reduction of inflammation (redness and swelling) and the protection of the heart.
  • Your sitting posture is critical, especially if you suffer from pain or inflammation. Try to sit as little as possible and only for a short period of time (10-15 min). Place a rolled-up towel at the back of your curve to alleviate pain. In addition, if necessary, a footrest can be used.
  • Follow heat or cold therapy by regularly applying a cold or hot compress to the joints for 15-20 minutes.
  • Relax by meditating, reading, enjoying a bubble bath, or listening to calming music.
  • Avoid drinking alcohol and quit smoking.
