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 exercises such as treadmill walking, biking, and swimming. Lifting light weights can also help improve your muscle strength.
Increase your intake of glucosamine, chondroitin sulfate, vitamin D, and calcium-rich supplements. Aside from that, turmeric and fish oils can help 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). To alleviate pain, place a rolled-up towel at the back of your curve. In addition, if necessary, a footrest can be used.
Follow heat or cold therapy by applying a cold or hot compress to the joints on a regular basis for 15-20 minutes.
Relax by meditating, reading, taking a nice bubble bath, or listening to calming music.
Avoid drinking alcohol and quit smoking.
