• 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.
