Arthritis is the inflammation of your joints due to lifestyle, age, and family history. Failure to manage this chronic disease could cause severe joint pain and other adverse effects.
The long-term effects of having arthritis can affect your daily life. Swelling and stiffness can make even short-distance walking painful, and the excruciating pain can lead to loss of sleep, missed days of work, and increased levels of stress.
It is never too late to lower your risk of getting arthritis. The following healthy rules are a good starting point for healthier joints.
Rule #1: Eat Healthy
Eating well helps keep your joints strong and reduces the strain of excess weight. Omega-3 fatty acid found in fish is proven
to reduce inflammation in the body. Sardines and Salmon have many health benefits for the musculoskeletal system. The use of Turmeric can also help with inflammatory diseases like arthritis.
Rule #2: Exercise Regularly
Obesity can cause damage to your joints due to the pressure from being overweight. Maintain a healthy weight by doing physical activity. Simple exercises like walking and jogging help strengthen your bones and muscles at the same time you lose extra weight.
Rule #3: Prevent Injury
Protect your body from getting injured. Injuries from exerting too much effort or force can cause
too much stress in the joints which poses a higher risk of acquiring arthritis in the long run. Choose activities that place lower impact on your joints and know your body’s limitations.
Rule #4: Consult Your Doctor
A visit to your physician enables you to get the right treatment at the right time. If you have shown any symptoms of arthritis, early detection helps prevent the condition from worsening.
