Risk factors of osteoarthritis:
The treatment of osteoarthritis is to relieve pain and improve range of motion of the joint. This can be simple lifestyle changes, which is a very important part in the management of it. Firstly you should keep physically active. Exercise can improve joint mobility and reduce pain. Exercise will also strengthen the muscles surrounding the joint. A healthy diet is also very important to maintain an ideal body weight. In the case you are overweight, losing weight can ease the pressure on joints. A healthy diet will also help reduce inflammation in your body. Pineapple, cherries and turmeric are helpful. Avoid sugar as this increases inflammation.
