Has anyone heard of comfrey Ointment. A friend told me to get some for my hurt knee. Has anyone used any of that? Is it any good? Where can I find some of good quality?

My pain gets better at times but I will wake up in the middle of the night and have really bad pain in my knees, wrists, shoulders, and ankles. Is this normal? Why does it happen? Anything I can do to make it better? Thanks!

I’m not talking about severe dehydration. My husband says the reason my hip cramps up is because I don’t drink enough water. Just wondering if anyone with medical training can answer.

Hip/muscle & joint pain began after 2 months on 70 mg(month) of Fosamax & has gotten progressively worse after a total of 6 months on the drug — stopped prescription this week.

I fully believe there’s a link of some sort; my arthritic wrist usually starts bugging me roughly 12 hours before the weather changes….. The question is, is the link provable? Or is it an annoying coincidence of nature?

Hi! I had a really bad case of tonsillitis/cold that lasted a fortnight. just when its getting better i have now come down with weak joints that are so painful when i try to move or get up. pain is only really bad when i put my weight on them (eg- knees when i get out of a chair). it is so bad though i have to psych myself up to move! no headache or fever, so its not the flu. any ideas would be appreciated.

I’m 32 weeks and I have developed pain in my fingers and hips that has become almost excruciating at night. I’m only 25, surely I’m not getting arthritis! Is there anything I can do to alleviate the pain?

Do you think there would be any side effects for giving my dog marijuana to numb his horribly painful joint pain? Do you know of any easier ways or techniques for getting the dog to smoke the marijuana joint?

Every so often, the joints in my foot will start to ache, and it’ll radiate throughout all of the joints up to my hip. It feels like I need to stretch my leg out, but that usually just makes it worse. It’s also very stiff and cracks a lot. It’s never happened in both legs at the same time, and it’s more often in my left. Usually applying pressure with an ace bandage helps, but lately, not so much. It comes completely randomly. I’m an otherwise healthy 17 year old girl. Has anyone ever had a problem like this? Thanks so much for any help!

I’ve only been taking about 20 mg. per day for about 10 days but i’ve noticed some joint pain. it could be something else, but nothing that I’m aware of.

I had my baby 6 weeks ago and ever since I gave birth I wake up with really bad joint pain in my fingers. Also my hands are always asleep! I’ve heard of carpal tunnel while being pregnant which I didn’t have but not after…??

I saw an add on TV for "Supple". Its a mango flavored drink that is supposed to relieve joint pain. I would like to know if anyone has tried it and had success before I buy it for me and my husband. Thanks

It was reported on the news a while back. Some people that took it got severe joint pain and sometimes caused death. I’m looking for the name of the antibiotic or the news show that covered it.

as far as natural remedies, or vitimins, supplemets or minerals go. I am not talking about pain killers or magic creams.

I have periodic shoulder pains (joint, not muscle) could Hydroxycut be contributing to the pain?

i’m just a teen, and i just relalize i bought a box of those powder water flavoring stuff for joint support. i have no problem with joints, but i bought it cause i read fruit punch on it. the brand is active lifestyle and i am not in a diet what so ever. is it still okay to drink in general?

Hi, I’m 18 years old, but ever since little I experience knee and ankle pain after walking/standing for too long (i.e shopping for a day). It feels like my leg is being pulled apart right at the joints. After awhile my entire leg is numb and in pain, and of course most painful at the joints.This would last the entire night, but next morning I would wake up fine. Does anyone has an explanation for this?
Thank You

My daughter is pregnant (1-2 months). She suffers from arthritis and since a few days ago has had swelling fingers in feet and hands. Normally she takes Celebrex, but now she cannot take it. Ginger and Tylenol with codeine have been recommended. What else she can do?

I’ve been suffering from swollen joints for years periodically. Now I’m constantly suffering from extremely painful and very swollen wrists. Sometimes in both or one or the other. I’ve read about Bromelin and just need to know about results. I’m female and in my 30’s. I’v been to the doctors and had blood tests, which came back normal I don’t want to take chemical enhanced drugs.

Like myself and i’m 6"3′ . I am going through a martial arts class right now. I am frequently required to do break falls on my back. Would prior weight training have minimized my back pains i’m going through now?

I went to the doctor to see if it was arthritis. My grandmother had severe arthritis so I thought that might be the problem. Thankfully, the result was negative, but I don’t know what to do?

I have a 13 year old lab mix who has trouble getting up and going when she gets up from a sitting/laying position.
Any suggestions on treating stiffness in dogs?
