What are all the symptoms for arthritis?

I found out there is a place down the street that does water classes for people with arthritis and I was curious if anyone found them to beneficial if they had mild to moderate arthritis. Thanks!

have you ever benefited from anything provided by the Arthritis Foundation?

My grandmother has been suffering with pain for years. Doctors have did MRIs to rule out blood clots/blockages. They say it's just arthritis and I'm trying to find alternatives for pain relief. She will try anything!

My aunt's pharmicist recommended her some japanese garlic tablets used to treat the pain of arthritis but she lives in texas and the doctor says that the only pills available are here in california. It specifically has to be japanese and I don't have a clue where to find them. I live in oc California but I dont have a clue where to find them. I already tried GNC but the pills aren't there. If anyone could please help, it would mean alot to me. Thank you all.

All of a sudden I get pain in my left hip a month ago, and it is still tender today. I don't understand what happened. It seems that walking is helping a whole lot right now. Instead of being able to exercise it out, some of the problem is transferred to hyperextending my left knee too. What can I do?

Are there any supplements I can take to get rid of the arthritis?

I read that apple cider vinegar is supposed to be better than ice. Is this true?

I've been using the bench press for about a month now, and I've had great results. The problem is, about three days ago I developed joint pain in and around my shoulders. I don't want to stop using the bench press because it's the best piece of workout equipment I have and I've gotten fantastic results. Is there something I can do to stop this pain?

My friend have rheumatoid arthritis, she is concerned because she's taking 3 medication, and still have joint damage on her small joints. Is this normal?

I was in a bad car accident a few years back. I now have a severe case of arthritis in my knee. I dont want to take meds all the time to dull the pain. I guess I am looking for a good natural treatment or home remedy that really works. Thank you in advance for any info you can give me.

And could this lead to future joint replacement surgery. At his age, would surgery be wise?

I would like to know #1 what causes arthritis and #2 is it something that just shows up after a bad auto accident?
Thanks.

I am just trying to find out if the pain I have is coming from my hip or stomach adhesions that I know I have also. Very painful. Dont want to have surgery for adhesions when pain is coming from arthritis/bursitis in hip. Does anyone know if cortisone shots will help with hip arthritis and for how long will it last.
DESPERATE!!!!!!!!

I'm experiencing a bit of pain in my joints and muscles and I don't want to have to rely on pills to get me through my day. I've heard that fasting if done properly can eliminate toxins from the body and relieve major symptoms of arthritis and even Raynaud's phenomenon. It's worth a shot.

And yes I've already consulted a doctor this week. She took some tests and told me to come back in a month. Then she sent me on my way home with a prescription for a pain killer (that doesn't do much for pain) and some thing to help me sleep at night.

This is a friend of mine, who has always been active and likes sports, but has recently been diagnosed with arthritis in both knees. She was advised to lose weight too, so the knees would not have to work hard carrying the extra weight.
What kind of exercise would be good for someone with knee replacement?

Can it kill you? Or do you stay alive with it and its something you have until you die or something, Is it an infection what kills you or do you just live with it? It's a request from my brothers friend, He thinks its growing pains or juvenile arthritis.

My husband has been diagnosed with psoriactic arthritis, which means he has psoriasis in his joints and the pain is unbelievable in his feet, ankles and wrists and hands. We have been to rheumatologists and have had several kinds of prescription but nothing has helped. Now they want to try some injections which will cost 1000 dollars a month and is not covered by our insurance. Anyone who has had similiar experience and found some relief please tell me….Serious answers only please..I am desperate to find him some relief. Thank you.

I adopted a 13 year old dog from the pound (they were about to put her to sleep) and she has mild arthritis. I give her soft pillows to lie on and let her be on the couch but she still seems to move stiffly and lies around a lot. Is there any special food I can give her or anything? I have never had an old dog before.

I found out she had arthritis a month ago and i've been giving her medicine for it since then, could that be causing weight gain?

My cousin came over today and said my cat felt and looked heavier and asked if she gained weight.

I have tried them all and my poor stomach is beginning to feel the toll. I have used perscription and nonperscription drugs. None of them keeps me from hurting long. Does anyone have any suggestions? My doctor has told me that cortisone injuctions will be next and I really do not want to go on steroids. Help!!!

It feels as though there is some part of the shoulder that is slightly detached. Thank you for your assistance with this serious matter.

What were the results?

I have been running 3 miles every day for a month. I have knee pain. It is not too bad but still makes me uncomfortable. During the days I do not run I have no knee pain (I usually supplement by going for a walk or swim). So what do you do to manage knee pain after running?

My arthritis in my hip is so painful that it’s difficult to sleep at night. I know I need to lose weight and I’m working on that, but what’s the best way to try to be comfortable in the meantime? My Dr. suggested I take Tylenol 8 Hour Extendtabs at night in addition to the Naprosyn I take twice daily, so I’m trying that tonight. I’m also trying a capsaicin patch. Narcotics and sleeping pills are not an option. Anything else I can do?
