Joint pain
Joint pain and joint inflammation are symptoms that are synonymous with one another, often caused by rheumatic diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis.
Relief Is Closer Than It Seems
However, it doesn’t have to be all bad news. Over the years, we have treated thousands of patients, and a very high percentage have found their way back to recovery – even when it seemed there was no light at the end of the tunnel.Rheumatoid arthritis affects young, middle-aged and older people alike, to the tune of about 20,000 new cases in the UK per year. This is an autoimmune condition wherein the immune system attacks the joint-lining membranes called the synovium. The disease assails the joints symmetrically, meaning if the right hip is affected so too is the left. RA is known to cause inflammation, weakness and ultimately misalignment of feet, ankles, knees, hips, elbows, wrists, hands, shoulders and the neck.
Cause of your Arm pain
The Ipswich Spine Clinic can help you to fight this disease by adhering to a specific regime of treatment, rest, exercise, and nutrition. When used together these changes to your lifestyle should help reduce flare-ups and improve the quality of life. Joint pain caused by rheumatoid arthritis can be treated through gentle chiropractic adjustments, which serve to realign the ligaments, tendons and bones to their proper position. In order for these treatments to be effective, however, they must be conducted in conjunction with physical therapy sessions designed to strengthen the joint while it is in the natural and proper position. As a patient suffering from joint pain, you have to also consider a few lifestyle changes. Cutting down on repetitive motions or activities involving blunt force impact will eliminate trauma that can further magnify joint pain. Together with our expertise at the Ipswich Spine Clinic, we can help to develop a complete wellbeing plan devised to offer you relief from joint inflammation and the resulting pain it can cause throughout your body.
