Joint pain may seem a minor concern to some people, who will then avoid not only the doctor, but also other possible over the counter remedies and home treatments to ease their pain. They like to tough it out. But for those who are either afraid of or cannot afford a doctor visit, don’t worry—there are other options available to you than just visiting your doctor. Alternative treatments have been used for years, and now include everything from home remedies to anti-inflammatory supplements such as Celadrin.
Joint pain can be caused by a number of things, including arthritis, injury, or accidents. One of the common causes of joint pain is bursitis, which is inflammation of the small, fluid-filled sacs that serve as a cushion for your joints. A lot of people are not excited about the prospect of going to the doctor, and for this reason will first look for other treatment options, like those listed below.
- One of the best home remedies is to massage warm olive oil into the area with the joint pain. This helps to stop bursitis pain from recurring.
- Adding lavender oil drops to your bath water can also help keep spasms of joint pain at bay.
- Using a poultice may also help; try moistening freshly grated horseradish, place it in a small, porous bag, and place it over the area afflicted by joint pain.
- Boil 1 tsp. of cayenne pepper and one cup of apple cider vinegar, soak a rag in the mixture, and place it on the affected area.
- One proven remedy may not sound that tasty, but may be worth a try. Grate a potato and soak it overnight in a cup of water. The next day, strain the potato and drink the liquid. You should drink this oncee a day for the best results and to prevent the bursitis from returning.
- Vitamin deficiencies can contribute to the organs swelling, so take some extra vitamin C or vitamin B12. You can get a lot of the vitamins you need by eating salads.
- If you suffer often from bursitis, you should mix water with honey and apple cider vinegar to drink daily as well.
- Try taking a warm bath. Whether you're afflicted by joint pain or not, this is always a good way to help you relax your muscles and give your body an opportunity to heal and de-stress.
- Therapeutic massage oils are available that penetrate deep down into the joint. If you are unable to find these oils, baby oil will work, but nowhere near so well.
- Finally, you can also take an all natural anti-inflammatory supplement such as Celadrin to lessen the inflammation and to ease some of the pain.
Remember, keeping yourself in a healthy condition will help you to possibly avoid injuries to your joints, so find a diet and exercise routine that will keep you interested and healthy.
