Here Are Some Of The Most Effective Natural Arthritis Pain Reliever Choices

By Nancy Baker


You can always pop an anti inflammatory drug in your mouth each time your joint is achy. However, you should be ready to face some really unfavorable side effects as well as health risks. If you're not willing to experience dizziness, ringing in the ears, stomach pain, diarrhea and many others, skip taking a drug. What you need to do is choose from the many different natural arthritis pain reliever options. Some of the best can be found below, so keep on reading.

Use a heating pad. Grab a cotton sock and stash uncooked rice in it. Secure the opening and then microwave for one to two minutes. Double check that it's not scalding hot and then gently place on your affected joint. Perform this many times per day until you finally enjoy relief.

Grab some ice. Doctors say that you should refrain from using a hot pack if there's inflammation because things will surely worsen. Instead, go for a cold compress. Experts agree that placing some ice cubes on your skin directly is not a good idea. Wrap them in a small towel before placing them on the affected joint for much needed relief.

Give a strong brew of chamomile a try. Dip two chamomile tea bags in a cup of hot water. Let them infuse in it for several minutes until the water is lukewarm. Get a sizable cotton pad and dunk it in the infusion. Put it on the achy joint and leave it there until totally cool. If necessary, repeat everything.

Apply a little turmeric paste. Place 1 tablespoon of turmeric in a small bowl. Add 1 drop of water at a time while mixing. As soon as the mixture has a creamy texture, stop adding water. Massage the resulting paste on your joint and allow it to dry there. No need to rinse off with water. Turmeric may be applied on the problem area several times per day.

Brew and drink ginger tea. Another effective remedy for arthritis is ginger because it's actually a relative to turmeric. In a cup of boiling water, allow to steep a teaspoon of fresh ginger root that's grated. Strain after several minutes. If you are not happy with the strong taste, add a teaspoon of lemon juice or honey. Consume a cup of ginger tea in the morning as well as before bedtime for faster results.

Eat oily fish types. There are loads of beneficial fats found in oily fish and they're referred to as omega 3 fatty acids. They're recommended for anybody who is suffering from arthritis because they possess anti inflammatory properties. Regularly add some oily fish to your diet such as herring, salmon, trout, halibut, sardines and tuna.

Take a fish oil capsule every day. Worry not if it's not possible for you to consume oily fish regularly. That's because you may simply buy a bottle of fish oil capsules and take one daily. If you are prescribed with a blood thinning medication, make sure that you tell your doctor about your plan on taking fish oil as it can cause further thinning of the blood. Such can be dangerous because it can lead to excessive bleeding.
