Several resent studies show that overweight male and female adults suffering from osteoarthritis can significantly reduce the amount of pain and disability they experience as a result of their osteoarthritis (the most common type of arthritis) by losing a mere 5% of their body weight.

“It is more or less proven now that the most effective thing, if you have osteoarthritis of the knee, is weight loss,” says Henning Bliddal (a co-author of the study), of HS Frederiksberg Hospital in Copenhagen. Join Pain is highly associated with your weight. Increased weight means more stress on your joints which makes it prone to joint related problems. To give an indication , while walking you are exerting a minimum of three times your body weight on the while you are walking.

“As such, weight reduction therapy in overweight osteoarthritic patients is a very appealing goal, both with regards to disease-specific pain and disability reduction as well as for overall health benefits such as cardiovascular risk reduction,” adds Robin Christensen (also a study co-author), of HS Frederiksberg Hospital.

The conducted study consisted of an extensive search within varying databases in the efforts to identify studies wherein patients suffering from osteoarthritis of the knee who had also experienced weight loss of 5% (or more) of their body weight.

Out of the twenty-three studies meeting research criteria, all of the participants noted decreased pain and lower levels of disability after their weight loss. The total number of patients who participated in this collection of studies exceeded five hundred.

The relationship between participating individuals weight loss and the reduction in arthritis pain and disability proved to be impressive and the resulting report indicated the findings as convincing.

Computer modeling indicated that an overall weight loss of a mere 5.02%, within a specific period of time, would dramatically lessen the severity physical disabilities and pain experienced by overweight adults suffering from osteoarthritis. In a 200-pound person, that weight loss adds up to just ten pounds!

If an individual loses 10% of their body weight they will experience moderate -to-large improvement in self-reported physical disability,” Christensen stated.

Medical professionals recommend that overweight arthritis sufferers lose at least 10% of their body weight within an 8-week (or two month) time frame. In a 200-pound adult, losing 10% (or 20 pounds) of excess body weight can prove challenging, but worth the effort in the long run.

The best possible way to accomplish this weight loss is to increase levels of activity and begin a regimen of healthy eating. Exercise alone will not provide optimal results if youre still overeating and consuming the wrong types of food. It is recommended that you first begin to improve your diet and then add exercise to your routine.

Doctors agree that your knees will last longer if you follow a healthy eating plan in conjunction with low impact, moderately strenuous exercise. Your exercise routine should be adjusted to your fitness level, and as you become more physically fit you can increase the level of your activity.

Arthritis treatment & pain relief – Part 1

admin — Sun, 15 Aug 2010 20:28:08 +0000

One in three adults will suffer from some kind of arthritis as they get older. The term “Arthritis”

covers more than a hundred different types of the disease, all causing pain, stiffness, and inflammation in varying degrees.

The two most common types of arthritis are osteoarthritis, a degenerative joint disease, and rheumatoid arthritis, an autoimmune disease.

Osteoarthritis is the most prevalent, caused by wear and tear on the joints and affecting mostly older people. Osteoarthritis affects the knees, hips, hands, and spine of sufferers, and results from the degeneration of joint cartilage. This form of arthritis can be the result of strains and injuries caused by repetitive movement, and can be suffered by sportsmen and women.

Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease that causes chronic inflammation of the joints. Sufferers can be any age. Rheumatoid arthritis can also cause inflammation of the tissue around the joints, and can affect other organs in the body.

Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic disease but patients may have long periods of remission without symptoms.

So, how is arthritis diagnosed? Let us concentrate on osteoarthritis.

The diagnosis of arthritis is a complex matter, as so many factors have to be taken into account.

The age and sex of the patient, the joints affected, the speed of onset, and whether there are any related symptoms.

X-rays of the affected joints, and blood tests will be necessary to correctly diagnose the type of arthritis, and to accurately determine the extent of any damage to the joints.

As with all medical conditions, there are new methods of diagnosis and treatment being made available for arthritis all the time, so patients should be made aware of these by their medical practitioner.

Once a patient has been diagnosed, a treatment decision will be made depending on the precise type of arthritis, and there are many options. Most patients will be offered drug therapy to reduce inflammation and manage pain, and it may take a time to find the correct combination of medication for each individual.

A number of patients suffering from arthritis will also benefit from physiotherapy and gentle physical exercise under medical supervision.

Alternative Remedies

Alternative treatment options and dietary supplements have become popular for arthritis and osteoarthritis in particular.

The problem is, there are as many alternative treatments around as there are stars in the sky!

Got Osteoarthritis? Here Are A Few Tips That Might Help…

admin — Mon, 02 Aug 2010 19:20:40 +0000

Osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis, affecting about 40 million Americans. It is also the most common cause of disability.

While more than half of patients older than 65 years of age have osteoarthritis changes in the their knees on x-ray, osteoarthritis is not considered a “normal” part of aging.

Certain activities and occupations increase the likelihood of osteoarthritis. For instance baseball players have an increased incidence of osteoarthritis in the elbows and shoulder. Football players have an increased incidence of osteoarthritis in the hips and knees. And ditch diggers have an increased incidence of osteoarthritis in their wrists.

Obesity is a risk factor for osteoarthritis developing in the knees.

Osteoarthritis is a disease that arises from biochemical changes in cartilage which include a decrease in glycosoaminoglycans, an important constituent of collage, an increase in water content, and an increase in the content of destructive enzymes such as matrix metalloproteinases.

These changes lead to structural weakening of cartilage. Small fissures develop, then larger cracks and irregularities also occur. Ulceration of cartilage and further deterioration occurs. The end result is a premature wearing away of cartilage with exposure of underlying bone. Along with this wearing away of cartilage is an increase in inflammation of the lining of the joint, the synovium.

The joints that are affected most in osteoarthritis are weight-bearing areas such as the neck, low back, hips, and knees.

Stiffness and pain are the moist common symptoms.

On physical exam, there are signs that point towards the diagnosis including bony swelling, and distribution of joint problems.

Laboratory testing is usually normal. X-rays may show changes.

Treatment for osteoarthritis is aimed at five primary goals. They are relief of pain, maintenance of function, prevention of disability, control of co-morbid conditions, and avoidance of medication side effects.

Non-drug therapies include patient education, physical therapy, thermal modalities, weight loss if indicated, and exercise.

Drug therapies include non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents, injections of glucocorticoids or viscosupplements (lubricants), and disease-modifying drugs.

Alternative therapies such as acupuncture, balneotherapy (spas), glucosamine/chondroitin, massage, chiropractic, etc. all have their advocates.

One area that has received much attention is the use of mechanical shifting devices that can unload specific joints. For instance osteoarthritis of the knee, a common problem, has received much scrutiny lately.

A recent study showed that the use of shoes that mimic barefoot walking may help because there is more pressure placed on the middle of the knee joint when people wear shoes as opposed to when they walk barefoot.

Also, the use of a simple device like a cane also reduced the load on the knees.
(Kemp G, et al Arthritis Care and Research 2008; 59: 609-614).

Other studies have found that lateral wedge insoles worn inside shoes can also reduce the load on the medial side of the joint.

Until the day comes when new cartilage can be grown… and that day may be closer than we think, particularly with the emphasis on stem cell research, the above modalities may have to do.

Osteoarthritis (oa): Knee Surgery No Panacea!

admin — Tue, 27 Jul 2010 22:28:39 +0000

Each year thousands of medics utilize their surgical instruments to perform surgery for treating osteoarthritis, however, a recent study published in the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) found that surgery wasn’t any better than conventional treatments for treating the disorder.

Arthroscopic surgery is a widely accepted minimally invasive surgical procedure, wherein surgeons insert medical instruments including an arthroscope in the knee to remove cartilage fragments, thus smoothening the joint surface to provide relief.

However, the recent study by scientists at the Robarts Clinical Trials at the University of Western Ontario in London concluded that patients with arthritic knees benefited equally well with non-surgical treatments viz. pharma drugs and physical therapy.

The research lasting 8 years, from 1999 to 2007 is based on the observation of 178 osteoarthritis (OA) patients. Of which 86 were treated with medicines and physical therapy. And at the end no additional benefits of surgery were found.

Despite the results, the health care industry experts suggest that knee arthroscopy is beneficial in the treatment of many abnormal medical conditions affecting the knee, viz meniscal repair, resection.

Osteoarthritis (OA), or degenerative arthritis, is a clinical syndrome in which low-grade inflammation results in swelling, pain, and stiffness in the joints. The disorder is a consequence of wear and tear within the joint. It’s also the most common type of arthritis that affects 27 million Americans and 10% of the Canadians.

Although simple arthroscopic procedures might not have proven to be better than conventional treatments in this study, experts believe that for patients with severe arthritis, “knee replacement surgery” serves as an option.

Osteoarthritis symptoms – Part 1

admin — Thu, 10 Jun 2010 00:08:37 +0000

Osteoarthritis is the most prevalent rheumatic disease. There is an enormous disability and loss of productivity associated with this condition; osteoarthritis is second only to cardiovascular diseases. The prevalence and severity of osteoarthritis increases with age. The degree of osteoarthritis is almost universal after 75 years of age; if someone lives long enough, they will have some form of osteoarthritis. Women are more affected than men in osteoarthritis, especially in nodal osteoarthritis.

Osteoarthritis is primarily a disease of the joint cartilage. The cartilage is the low-friction surface covering bone ends which functions in lubrication during movement, shock absorbency, load support and joint stability. Th cartilage is mainly composed of water, chondrocytes (controls synthesis and degradation of cartilage), collagen (proteins involved in tensile strength and maintenance of shape) and proteoglycans (provides the “stuffing material” for the cartilage). The failure of the chondrocytes to maintain the balance between cartilage formation and destruction exposes the underlying bone, leading to microfractures and osteophytes.

The major symptoms of osteoarthritis are pain, and to a lesser extent stiffness. Loss of mobility and function ensue. Instability of the weight-bearing joints and limited motion can also present as symptoms of osteoarthritis. As there are no proven cure for osteoarthritis, the underlying goals of treatment are to reduce pain, improve function, and prevent associated disability.

The pain experienced during osteoarthritis is usually a deep, aching pain. The pain worsens on motion and weight-bearing, but improves with rest. On the other hand, the other symptom of osteoarthritis, stiffness, resolves with motion but recurs with rest. This stiffness usually lasts for about 30 minutes or less in duration.

The sources of pain in osteoarthritis are multiple, and includes structures within and around the joint as well as psychosocial factors. The focus in osteoarthritis research has been on articular cartilage, and clinically this is monitored by joint-space narrowing on X-ray. However, the articular cartilage contains no neural or vascular structures.

Intra-articular sources of pain include periosteum and osteophyte formation, subchondral bone engorgement and microfractures, intra-articular ligament degeneration, capsular distension with effusions, and synovitis. Periarticular sources can include inflammation of tendon, fascia or bursa, muscle spasm, and nerve pressure. Psychosocial aspects can contribute, with lower education levels and depression both being associated with greater pain and disability in patients with osteoarthritis.

How Do Arthritis Experts Treat Osteoarthritis?

admin — Sat, 29 May 2010 00:54:46 +0000

Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis and affects more than 20 million Americans. Commonly associated with aging, OA affects weight-bearing areas of the musculoskeletal system such as the neck, low back, hips, and knees. It also affects joints that are highly mobile such as the base of the thumb and the big toe joint.

While OA was considered to be primarily a condition affecting the elderly, it is now believed that OA can begin early- within the second decade of life. OA is a disease that affects cartilage, the gristle that lines the ends of long bones.

Cartilage consists of a matrix that is composed of a mixture of collagen and proteoglycans. Within this matrix, cells that make new cartilage, called chondrocytes, sit much like grapes inside jello.

Biochemical changes occur that lead to alterations in the matrix of cartilage making it more susceptible to early degeneration. As a result, the cartilage begins to wear away prematurely. Small cracks- called fissures- begin to form. The fissures eventually grow to the point that the cartilage actually flakes away. At the same time, inflammation develops and this accelerates the wearing away of cartilage.

It is difficult to estimate the number of people who have OA but who are not yet symptomatic. However, as we learn more about this disease, it is clear that cartilage changes and symptoms do not necessarily go hand-in-hand.

The treatment of OA then needs to take into consideration both the symptoms of pain that occur along with the biochemical changes that lead to cartilage deterioration.

A number of investigators have devoted much time and effort towards developing medicines called disease-modifying osteoarthritis drugs or DMOADS.

Unfortunately, DMOAD discovery is extremely difficult since cartilage damage is hard to quantitate. Scientists have used many different methods to measure cartilage thickness in response to drugs including magnetic resonance imaging, ultrasound, standard x-ray, and arthroscopy. Arthroscopic retrieval of cartilage specimens offers the most hope as far as a definitive marker of effect but is technically difficult.

Currently, the treatment of osteoarthritis is primarily symptomatic. Rheumatologists generally start with non-drug therapies including patient education, dietary counseling, and specific exercises.

Over-the-counter non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) such as ibuprofen (eg, Advil) or naproxyn (eg, Aleve) and analgesics such as acetaminophen (eg, Tylenol) sometimes are effective.

Most patients with more than mild OA will require prescription medications such as prescription NSAIDS (Motrin, Naprosyn, Lodine, Relafen, Daypro, Mobic, and Celebrex, to name a few.) These medicines are usually effective but also carry with them potential side-effects including damage to the gastrointestinal system, kidney damage, and an increased risk of cardiovascular events such as heart attack and stroke.

A food-based anti-inflammatory compound called flavocoxib (Limbrel) appears to be effective for some patients and appears to be safer than traditional NSAIDS.

Prescription analegesics such as tramadol (Ultram) may be useful. However, the use of stronger narcotics sometimes is called for in severe cases.

Topical agents such as Myorx (an OTC preparation), Voltaren gel, and patches such as Flector (a patch containeing Voltaren) and Lidoderm (a patch containing lidocaine, a local anesthetic) can also be useful adjuncts.

Since OA tends to affect weight-bearing joints the most, the hip and knee are often the symptomatic areas that bring patients in to see the rheumatologist.

Injections of corticosteroid (cortisone) or viscosupplements (lubricants derived from rooster combs or other sources… examples being Hyalgan, Supartz, Synvisc, Euflexxa)) can be helpful for symptomatic relief.

The most exciting and promising therapy aimed at both pain relief as well as cartilage regeneration appears to be the use of combined treatment using stem cells and platelet rich plasma. The technique involves the use of autologous stem cells, meaning cells that are harvested from the patient, and given back to the patient therefore mitigating the ethical concerns associated with fetal stem cells.

Stem cells are harvested using a biopsy needle from the iliac crest (pelvic bone) of the patient. At the same time, blood is drawn and the blood is spun down to produce platelet rich plasma. Platelets are cells in the blood that contain many growth and healing factors. A small gauge needle is then inserted into the joint (knee or hip) using local anesthetic and the area of concern (cartilage, bone spur, and tendon attachments) are mildly irritated with the needle. The stem cells and platelet rich plasma are then injected into the joint.

Preliminary results appear very promising not only for symptom relief but also for chondrocyte and cartilage regeneration.

Arthritis Pain Relief Through Herbal Massage

Arthritis simply means inflammation of the joints. Arthritis can occur at any age but generally it is seen in people who are over 40 years of age. The inflamed condition of joint can occur due to many reasons caused externally as well internally.

Types of arthritis

Osteo-arthritis – Osteoarthritis is a type of arthritis that is caused by the break-down and ultimate loss of the cartilage of one or more joints.

Rheumatoid arthritis – An autoimmune disease that causes chronic inflammation of the joints, the tissue around the joints, as well as other organs in the body

Gout – Condition characterized by unusually elevated levels of uric acid in the blood, chronic attacks of joint inflammation (arthritis), deposits of hard lumps of uric acid in and around the joints, and reduced kidney function and kidney stones

Arthritis Treatment for Arthritis Pain Relief

Arthritis as mentioned earlier also is a condition in which inflammation of the joint occurs. In some conditions there occur some anatomical changes that leads to permanent changes in the joint and the reverse of it is impossible. But there are certain methods that are extremely beneficial in attaining a good arthritis pain relief. Herbal massage is one of them.

Historically, herbal massage has been known for its numerous health benefits as early as the second century BC. It was Hippocrates (father of allopathic medicine) in the fifth century who espoused the benefits of rubbing a joint.

Herbal massage therapy cannot cure or stop the sequence of any of these arthritic conditions, but massage can most confidently ease the symptoms associated with inflammation, and help improve the quality of life of someone affected by arthritis.

The Benefits of Herbal Massage in arthritical conditions are:

Herbal massage helps in increasing blood circulation in the particular area.

Herbal massage increases the flexibility and mobility of the affected joint
These massages also decreases pain and inflammation of the joint

Herbal massages relieves the muscle form aches and stiffness

An herbal massage makes a sense of overall relaxation and wellness of the affected joint by arthritis.

Arthritis Pain Relief – You Can Get Rid Of Your Arthritis Pain Naturally

admin — Wed, 28 Apr 2010 16:11:50 +0000

A few years ago I accidentally discovered how to rid myself of arthritis pain, naturally. I got rid of my arthritis and arthritis pain forever by changing my diet. Unlike some other types of arthritis, such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis is not systemic; it does not spread through the entire body.

Arthritis concentrates in one or several joints where deterioration occurs. Osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis.

The synovium is a membrane that surrounds the whole joint; it’s filled with synovial fluid, a lubricating liquid that supplies nutrients and oxygen to the cartilage. Cartilage contains a high percentage of water, but it decreases with age. Joints are designed for normal and painless movement and are primarily supplied by the synovium and cartilage.

As chondrocytes (the cells that make up cartilage) age, they lose their ability to make repairs and produce more cartilage; this process may play an important role in the development and progression of osteoarthritis. Injuries sometimes can be the start in the arthritic disease process; osteoarthritis can develop years later even after a single traumatic injury to a joint or near a joint.

An inflammatory response causes cytokines, to gather in injured areas and cause inflammation and damage to body tissue and cells; it’s known to play a role in rheumatoid arthritis and other muscle and joint problems associated with autoimmune diseases.

If you really want to get rid of your arthritis pain forever it may take a radical change in your diet and an ongoing commitment. One natural treatment method involves avoiding all inflammatory foods. Try massaging your fingers or other affected joints with coconut oil twice a day.

Keep in mind, if you take a joint supplement it should help do three things — build cartilage, relieve everyday joint pain, and enhance your flexibility and movement. Many have told me that going off dairy products and gluten containing foods relieved their arthritis pain entirely. Some people swear by glucosamine and/or chondroitin and others say it didn’t help at all.

An acidic diet, that is any foods not alive, is considered to be inflammatory to the joints. For snacks, choose raw nuts without salt instead of lifeless roasted nuts. Natural treatment for arthritis is usually a better choice because it’s non-invasive to the body. Many arthritis sufferers have changed their diets and noticed significant or total improvement.

To be on the safe side always seek your doctor’s advice before starting or changing your exercise program. Exercise in a heated pool; it will help reduce the pressure on your joints and the heat will help you loosen those joints. Your body has 147 joints in motion every day. Even the lightest exercise can go a long way to maintaining your joint mobility and overall health.

If you have pain and swelling in your fingers, try squeezing Thera-putty made for this purpose or exercising with two Chinese chime balls. Fight arthritis through proper exercise! Try to keep painful joint areas in motion, even in a limited manner.

If you’re going to go the conventional treatment route and take medications, ask your pharmacist for drug inserts so you can read up on the drugs and understand any side effects or adverse reactions, before taking them. Be aware that the use of NSAIDs or Cox-2 inhibitors do not halt the progress of osteoarthritis and may even hasten the onset. Once you become more informed about arthritis you’ll be able to plan an arthritis treatment program, natural or conventional or a combination of both.

Changing your diet to predominately fruits and raw veggies, like I did, can turn your arthritis pain around almost overnight. More and more doctors are investigating the benefits of alternative therapies and most don’t object to patients trying them. One should not only search for relief of arthritis pain but work on preventing it.

Arthritis and Diet and Some Other Things

A small book stressing the importance of the part Diet does play in causing most arthritic pains. It also deals with certain points gained from experience which ought to be useful both to doctors and patients, for example, how to treat Shingles, early, and have no pain. Though many of the recommendations are perhaps old-fashioned, they are still in use because they have been found to be useful. That after all is the benefit of experience. “What the ignorant and most doctors and nurses to know know it that there is an optimum position for burping. Babies should always be burped on the right shoulder which allows the gas to escape. On the left shoulder the infant will vomit.” “Beaver Fever” is well known in the Canadian Rockies. And, again in the Himalayas . Those clear mountain streams are not, as supposed, filled with pure water but are Nature’s lavatory. Brittle, Dry Nails: These are always improved by painting them daily or, when possible, with Almond Oil. Stones in the Kidney may be removed usually by eating that White Radish (Saphanus Rativus L.) called Moolie, or DAIKON in Japan. Taken three times a day as a soup, steamed or raw in a salad the stones will appear within a few days. (Depending of course on how big and how long they have been there!) For this purpose it is mentioned also in Nicholas Culpeper’s Herbal of 1653.

Review by Busy Mom 19:

This is a high quality oolong tea, very tasty, I agree that it does not need to be sweetened. Vacuum sealed for freshness. A good bargain for the price compared to other websites.
