Sorry if this posts twice. This is awesome! I have rheumatoid arthritis and noticing I'm getting weaker, knees, hips, feet, all weaker. I jumped out of bed to give it a try. It was incredibly difficult and I had to lightly place my foot staggered for the first few reps but then after 5 or so, i could do it one legged! Yay! This is going to help balance, hip flexors, as well as all over strength. I did 2 sets of 10 then subscribed! Thank you!

Guide on shoulder pain

[@LG-KETO]

Hi, Alyssa! I’ve been using a vibrator on my lower back when my arthritis pain increases. I’m wondering what thoughts you have about this. Probably not good for knee arthritis,or hand, but in the back, where the bones are not close to the surface, it works well to stimulate blood flow.

[@arthritisadventure]

Massage guns can be helpful to some for painful muscles but likely not painful joints themselves. Effectiveness depends on your pain levels, sensitivity, if swelling is present, and the intensity of the massage gun itself usually.

[@arthritisadventure]

They can have very similar effects

[@joannepatonai4114]

Icy Hot Patches work wonders for me. I also use Icy cold gel and extra strength rub. They both work wonders.

[@tinalalonde1438]

Hey Alyssa, both those didn't work for me, but the ARNICA spray worked really well and FAST. the gel did nothing. Thought i would share what's worked for me. Also I use knee tensors and help to ready swelling.

Funny I’ve been using ice trying to help my knee and 10 minutes of direct heat helped a lot… Thanks for the reminder..

[@arthritisadventure]

[@redbeard36]

My doctor recommended Voltaren and it has really helped with my knee arthritis.

[@arthritisadventure]

That’s great to hear! I know many people who have had success with using it.

[@LG-KETO]

Hi, Alyssa! I have arthritis in my lumbar area (right side). Occasionally, I inadvertently pull my upper thigh muscle on my left side. A chiropractor told me that my pelvis is twisted, but she didn’t give me any exercises to do at home. Can you suggest any?

[@arthritisadventure]

Your pelvis can’t quite get twisted as the bones are very stable. But you could have some asymmetries or muscle imbalances that allow you to move in a certain way to compensate. It’s important to address asymmetries if they exist (I.e one side weaker than the other, off balance, etc). I would start with a workout like this and see if you notice any side to side differences: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ql7Ldnyloq2Ud7c If you need further assistance I do offer one on one consults for a movement assessment to help you find these asymmetries: calendly.com/adventurealive/movement-assessment?back=1&month=2022-01

[@vernonjohnson819]

Are there any compression sleeves without nylon? I have an odd skin allergy.

Hey, do you have a list of best creams to use other than voltrun?

Here are two others that may be helpful: Arthritis wonder: amzn.to/3eWFehv Biofreeze: amzn.to/3qQDTyj

[@ivanalaff5346]

I ove your exercises and your approach; thank you so very much…how about Lidocaine? My doc told me it is ok to mix cbd( no thc) with lidocaine and voltaran…works quickly and is long lasting(relatively speaking)

[@user-qf6ur7rr4z]

San Po nabibili Yung voltaren

[@essanjay8604]

My best advice would be to stay living in a warm climate if you can - England in the cold and wet is a killer for arthritis pain whatever remedies you apply!

[@GEKENILWORTH]

Years ago, wise old family doc suggested using an ice pack on arthritic joints for a few minutes, followed quickly by a heat pack (the thought being that the heat application causes blood to rush into the painful area after it had been iced and that helped the pain). Any thoughts on this?

[@arthritisadventure]

Hmm I haven’t heard of that 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@cccynova]

I'm surprised you saìd that more people prefer heat. I crave cold therapy on my hands, because heat just increases the inflammation. Cold is soothing and seems to reduce the inflammation just a bit

[@sandysue202]

I am just the opposite. If I use ice, it increases the pain, but heat seems to make everything feel just a bit better. It's crazy how different we all are!❤

[@harrietmontee8636]

I fell 2 months ago and injured a muscle. I am now able to get in/out of bed. Have started doing your exercises with out pain!! However I think it is fear that is slowing me down to a crawl. Before the fall my only problem was my lower back from disk,and off and on pain in knees.

[@guillerecio7244]

I been using a frozen clay wrap 😯 for at least 15 minutes, should i stop? How cold.?

Ice can be okay, I would limit the time to about 15-20 minutes at a time if you can!

Im 67 with two "severely deteriorated....bone on bone.. arthritic" formerly uber painful knees. My orthodontist said I could come regularly for cortisol shots, and as soon as that quit working, he'd do replacements. That seemed crazy to me, so I did a bunch of research and implemented a ketogenic diet with intermittent fasting. Now built up to back to back 36 hour (or longer) fasts. This has been miracle! I've lost close to forty pounds of my knee flection went from a super painful 45° to 140°! My knees have been limited to 45° or less for 10 years! Fasting will dump the fat, which is producing many hormones. One of these hormones are called adipokines, and adopokines destroy joint cartridge! Fasting also clears out that destroyed joint material and eliminates it from the body Jesus said, "WHEN you fast", not If you fast. All the best.

Great tips. Thank you so much. Believe it or not, i've found shea butter to be very soothing for my osteoarthritic R knee. I'm 67 and i like rubbing a lump of it between my palms until it melts and then i massage my knee. Then, i pull on my knee compression sleeve and go for a walk. It's especially perfect to use in the cold weather as it insulates against the cold. I'm not suggesting it's as a RX strength analgesic or anything, i've just found that my knee hurts less after using it.

I believe Voltaren said not to use on your back. Why is that and what's a better alternative?

there isn't really a good reason I could find besides it hasn't been studied based off a quick search. You could try a menthol base for lower back as long as it is cleared and safe for your personal use.
