Osteoarthritis

I do not that I know of..but who knows..the doctor here is not very efficient. Glad Mom will only pay a small fee but sorry she has this. Yes the water is always helpful. Pain I get is arthritis in my shoulder and knee but only slight so I can use Bio freeze cream and Ibuprofen.

I'm glad the doctor prescribed something that should help with your mom's pain. I hope the treatment works well for her.

It's good your mother can get the treatment she needs. I'm afraid I don't really have any good ideas for pain relief other than creams and tablets.

Oh, yeah! I sure do. Sorry to hear about your mom, though. I can only imagine (based on my twenty +/- years of living with osteoarthritis) how your mother must feel physically and emotionally. I have a high pain tolerance and threshold, so I can get by without medication most of the time. Both of my knees had to be replaced, and I get shots in my shoulders. I eat arthritis-fighting foods, take Epsom salt baths, use the R.I.C. E. method (see link below) and a heating pad when necessary. Most of all, I also don't keep still. While growing up, whenever we felt sick, my grandmother would say, "get up and move around, and maybe you will feel better."

Sorry about the issue that your mother is facing. Hope the thermal water treatment helps her .

i wish her quick recovery

I’m very glad your mother will only have to pay a very small fee. Arthritis is so painful I’m very sorry to hear your mother has to go through that.

Not that kind of health issue that causes pain. Maybe just going to a hot tub would give her relief and be much less expensive.

I'm sorry to hear that your mom has been diagnosed with osteoarthritis. I hope the thermal water treatments help and it's good that she'll only have to pay a small amount.

Oh my, any kind of arthritis is painful huhu

my dad has back problems but has to wait 3months for every appointment.he also gets heat treatments there. he's been doing that for 2-3years now. fingers crossed for your mum
