What is the best way to treat arthritis?

1, Analgesics: Generally, patients with joint inflammation eat anti-inflammatory painkillers, that is, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. This anti-inflammatory painkiller can inhibit systemic inflammation, slow down the attack speed and also have analgesic effect.

2. External use: you can choose drugs that relax muscles and promote blood circulation, reduce swelling and relieve pain, promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, and dispel wind and cold. Juyoutang handed down joints, ointments and patches have strong local permeability, and drug molecules can participate in blood circulation through skin absorption and reach the affected area, reducing inflammation exudation, promoting joint fluid absorption and relieving symptoms.

3. Acupuncture treatment: Acupuncture has a good therapeutic effect on knee arthritis. Acupuncture has anti-inflammatory, analgesic, repercussive and blood-activating effects. By changing the blood flow and blood flow velocity of the affected area, some pathogenic inflammatory factors are taken away, so as to improve the symptoms.

4. Medicinal diet conditioning: Eucommia ulmoides Oliv. 15g, Achyranthes bidentata 20g, Zanthoxylum bungeanum root 15g, and trotters about 200g. After the pig's trotters are depilated and washed, add medicinal materials and appropriate amount of water, cook until the pig's trotters are cooked and soft, and then serve them with soup. This recipe can also use deer tendon instead of pig's trotters. Deer tendon has the functions of strengthening tendons and bones, expelling wind and promoting blood circulation, and moistening joints.

5, exercise: To develop the habit of exercise, we must start from an early age, do what we can when exercising, and don't overdo it. Because the knee is the most load-bearing joint of the human body, it is easy to cause arthritis due to overload. Once you get sick, you shouldn't stop exercising completely. As long as you adjust the amount of exercise according to the situation, or do no-load exercise such as swimming and cycling, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages for knee arthritis.

6. Surgical treatment: For some advanced patients, artificial joints can be replaced by surgery. This method is also very effective, which can eliminate pain, correct deformity, improve function and greatly improve the quality of life of patients, but the cost of joint replacement is high.
