my mom has had rheumatoid arthritis for about 9 years now, and she had a knee replacement about 6 years ago… lately her arthritis has been causing her a lot of pain that she loses sleep over… medications that her doc gives her do not help. Are there any natural remedies or vitamins she can take to help ease the pain?

My mom suffers from severe arthritis from her hands all the way to her elbows, she can’t sleep comfortably. Is there a way to relieve these symptoms so that she can get a good nights sleep??
Maybe a heated sleeve??

My mom has arthritis in her knees. It is to the point where she gets surgery every few years to have it scraped out. I was wondering, if your mom has arthritis, are the chances any higher that you will also have arthritis? Also what can you do to prevent getting arthritis? Thank you.

I would like to make a magnetic necklace for my mom to help with her arthritis, but I don’t know how to tell what are good beads and which ones are worthless

Well I’ve been to manydifferent websites and I am certain I’ve fractured the joint or a bone in my finger. Its getting very swollen, It hurts very badly, I’m having difficulty moving it (I normally type with just my 2 index fingers but I am very fast), and the skin on the palm side where the joint resides is purple. Now the pain is traveling down to my palm. I feel I really need to see the doctor, but my mom won’t take me because last time I broke my arm and ended up needing a 5 thousand dollar surgery and the insurance company did not pay for most of it. She toldm e she’d have to make an appointment because she doesn’t want ot go to the E.R. and shes going to be busy all of this week. I need to take care of my figner because I know what happens if you don’t, so how can i take care of it without visiting a doctor?
Now i’m loosing feeling in the other fingers
She won’t take me because shes done this to her finger before and it healed ok but I’m just super worried.. plus tomorrow I have to pick up school books, and I don’t start school for 10 days, and on Tuseday shes getting a tooth implant so she can’t drive or anything.

My mom has been sick for over the last three days of a rash all over her body, aching joints(shoulder, knees, legs, wrists,etc), and fever. We took her to ER and they did Catscan and tested her for meningitis and all tests came back negative. My mom stated that she went over to her rental property to clean it out of which the renter had a dog she stated they she didn’t notice the rash until a day later. Her legs and knees aches so bad that it is hard for her to walk and the tip of her fingers were somewhat blue??? The doctors have no idea what’s going on so they want to recommend her to a vascular doctor. If anyone are familiar with these symptoms please help!

Do you think my mom has arthritis? she is 42 or 43 and her finger joints/wrist/elbow/shoulder hurt all in her left arm only.
Hurt for about 1 week

My mom is 53 and has swelling on the medial side of her knee, right below the knee cap. It has caused her pain since October, sometimes so bad that she can’t sleep at night. The doctor couldn’t even tell her what’s wrong. Any bright ideas?
no she does not have vericose veins.

DOCTORS dont work! and my mom is in TERRIBLEE pain! im soo frusterated with all her pain! i want to make it go away, but i dont know HOW!? all these medications are making her joint pain worse, and im just looking for some natural nutrient or ANYTHING with natural substace that WILL MAKE my mother BETTER! help! i cant do it with out your help! thank you! God bless!

My mom has joint pain, but she is also on COUMADIN (anticoagulant). The problem is that every time she finds medication that helps the pain subside, the doctors tell her to stop using it? They keep telling her to stick to Tylenol, but it does nothing for the joint pain.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

In pain

From running so much I have the worst shin splints, and pretty bad pain in my left knee, and so-so pain in my right knee. Some days my legs just throb all day, but some days they only hurt when I use them. The other day, they were killing. My mom said maybe we should go to the doctor to get it checked out.

What would the doctors do? X-rays? Refer me to physical therapy?

My mom was advised by her doctor to have knee replacement surgery due to her arthritis. However, since she’s diabetic, he also advised that she lose 30-50 pounds prior to surgery. Her diet is fine, but she really needs to incorporate more exercise to help get the weight off. Besides water aerobics, what are some low impact exercises she can do that would put pressure and strain on her knees? Thanks.

My dog Duke has it. I don’t think its hip dysplasia. my mom also thinks he has arthritis because when the weather changes he limps.

I used to walk him alot more but wen I am down and not happy(depression) i don’t but I was gonna walk him today but how long should I walk him for.
Should I put heat or cold on where he limps?

This summer my mom started feeling pain in her right elbow. Later her whole arm would hurt so the doctor said it was probably Tendinitis so she gave her a few exercises to do. Now her joints in her wrist, knees, ankles and toes sometimes hurt. Doctors still don’t know what it could be. Any ideas??

Im going to Puerto Rico and want to bring my mom a good home remedy for arthritis that she will be thankful and happy.

Ok, this is actually about my mom.
She has been experiencing joint pain in her lower arms, and hands for a couple of month. Starting with muscle pain in the area, and now in her feet and toes, arms and hands with severe pain and some swelling.
She went to the ER couple days ago, she was diagnosed with Arthralgia and referred to a Rheumatologist. Her appointment it’s in 2 weeks, but the pain gets worst sometimes. She says on a scale 1 to 10 its like an 8.

She read somewhere that some medications that she takes may be related to the pains, Lipitor and Premarim. So I will like to know if anybody knows anything about that.

Im just really worried and concerned about what it could be.
So any information will be appreciated.
THANK YOU!!!!..=)
