Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Include turmeric and fish oils, as they help in reducing inflammation.

  • Include fish like salmon, trout, tuna and sardines. These fish are enriched with omega-3 fatty acids that ramp up inflammation.
  • Your sitting posture is important, especially when you have pain and inflammatory conditions. Try to sit as little as possible and only for a short time (10-15 min). To minimise pain, use a back support like a rolled-up towel along the curve of your back. Keep your knees and hips at a right angle. Besides this, you can use a footrest if required.
  • Adopting a healthy lifestyle coupled with a high-protein diet is the mainstay in the management of arthritic conditions.

Health Queries

I have had inflammation in my right wrist, upper knees, and right ankle for the past 15 days, along with a mild fever and a CRP level of 18. I am currently taking NAC SR-100. What could be the possible medical condition, and what additional or alternative medicines should I take to treat it?

Chandrakanta Jena

Chandrakanta Jena

Pharm D

Your symptoms of multi-joint inflammation, mild fever, and elevated CRP (18 mg/L) suggest an active inflammatory arthritis, such as reactive arthritis, early rheumatoid arthritis, or psoriatic arthritis. Your current medicine, NAC SR-100 (Aceclofenac), is an NSAID that helps manage pain and swelling but does not cure the underlying condition. You should not self-medicate with alternative drugs. Please consult a rheumatologist promptly for a definitive diagnosis. Depending on the cause, they may recommend alternative NSAIDs (like naproxen), short-term oral corticosteroids, or disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) to safely and effectively treat the root inflammation.

I have severe pain on the right side of my mouth for the past 2 days, especially while chewing. Can you suggest a suitable pain reliever?

G.santoshini Reddy

G.santoshini Reddy

M Pharmacy (Pharmaceutics)

Severe pain on one side of the mouth, especially while chewing, is usually due to a dental problem such as tooth decay, gum infection, or a wisdom tooth issue. While a pain reliever can help temporarily, it will not treat the root cause. For short-term relief, you can take a painkiller and rinse your mouth with warm salt water while avoiding chewing on that side. However, since the pain is significant and recent, it is very important to see a dentist for proper diagnosis and treatment, which may include cleaning, filling, or other procedures depending on the cause. Do not rely on painkillers for more than a couple of days, and seek urgent care if you develop swelling, fever, or difficulty opening your mouth.
