10 ESSENTIAL tips to reduce morning pain & stiffness with arthritis

[@rumplestilskinbob7415]

She can make doctors and physical therapist in small towns jealous because of her knowledge we listen to her and watch her instead of them keep up the excellent job GOD BLESS

[@arthritisadventure]

So glad you like the channel! Thank you for the support.

[@wendywendy3718]

There are many many excellent doctors and therapists in small towns and I doubt this presenter is petty enough to want people to be jealous of her knowledge.

[@yubantwo2086]

In BIG town and cities too!

[@ChittarupaYoga]

Her videos are the best. 👍

[@rosej5029]

Im in a big city, it's also that she's telling the public what I DONT HEAR from doctors& physical therapists making me not trust them.

The 11th & MOST essential tip: Watch Arthritis Adventure! Your videos not only educate me but also make me feel like I am not alone with this crazy pain - a lot of us struggle with this life-challenging condition, & watching you always makes me smile because your attitude is so fun & "can do!" Thank you!

Alyssa you are an angel. 5 years ago i suffered from chikangunia affecting most of the joints.

All thanks to you dear.

I find that making my bed in the morning helps me stretch and move to help me get moving. I also do some gentle squats holding on to the bed post. Going for a 15-30 minute walk every day is also helping. I really appreciate your videos and suggestions!!!

[@arthritisadventure]

That's a good suggestion! Thanks for sharing and glad you liked the video!

[@jameslangschied7900]

Outstanding. I couldn't help but wonder if each of these tips would also help to produce an overall healthier individual. Incorporated together, these tips should lead to a longer, happier life. Proper nutrition, enough thorough sleep, routine exercise and stretching, and a confident mindset are rules to live by. Thank you Alyssa.

Since following your videos I am now walking 7 miles a day unaided. After my knee injury, I was told by doctors I wouldn't be able to walk unaided or run again. How do I get running?

[@1Airwaving]

Unlike this lovely professional❤, I am not a physical therapist. However; I think she would agree, ‘ running’ might not be a best goal!( hard on joints). Brisk walk!

[@kimfayj53]

That is awesome!! I was reading some articles on running with arthritis and it can be done but not hard core. I myself use to run and intend to get back to it but not the lengthy miles I use to do or the pace. More like jogging instead. Good luck and great job!

Dear madam.! 🙏 Lots of love from India.! ❤ Please answer my question. I have grade 2 knee osteoarthritis. The gap between my thigh bone and leg bone has reduced. Can the gap between my thigh bone and leg bone be increased by exercises and good diet? Is it possible? Will I get rid of my grade 2 knee osteoarthritis and do squats with heavy weight in the future after I get rid of my grade 2 knee osteoarthritis?

Make sure your hips, knees AND ankles are supported also. I like to keep my spine straight so I like my pillow a little flatter but supports my neck too. Sutera pillows works for me.

[@ldesnick]

I heard from another therapist that it is good to strengthen quads if you have OA in the knee. Exercises when you lay flat with your leg extended and then squeeze the quad while press to the mat is harmful to the knee. I would think having strong quads is important for the knee. What do you think?

[@UsterKoolageArt]

Love your videos and they are so helpful. When you speak of fluid in joints or swelling, can a 40 year old hip replacement ( an Austin Moore) cause either? I am a young at mind, healthy 74 yr old. A car accident in '81 left me a shattered femur and six breaks in pelvis, fractured vertebrae and lumbars. I stretch as best I can, and found your simple exercises of tapping forward, to sides and backward very helpful for pain, but squats and the inner groin area of hip replacement painful. I would just like to walk a block or two, but the hip locks up short way into a walk. Is this fluid build up or lack of fluid?

Thank you for some great strategies. I was just diagnosed with degenerative disc disease between the L4 and L5 discs. I've got some bone spurs pushing down on some of the nerves and mild scoliosis. Morning stiffness is definitely a pain to work with. I worked with a chiropractor but haven't gotten much relief. I've been avid runner but this creates a lot of pain now. So, how do you manage the fact that someone like me loves to exercise, which is helpful, but your body is saying no. Thank you.
