how do you get rid of pain due to arthritis?
I have rhumatoid arthritis and am only 27…also i am nursing what can i take to eleviate the pain….My dr. has me on loritab 10/325 4 times a day and i quit taking them because they are addictive
I also have screws in my foot from surgerries…I was on loritab during pregnancy prescribed by my Dr.
You can use several painkillers, also you can use some supplements as Chondroitin Sulphate, but the best way and the safest way is to lose some weight. If you lost a few pounds, you would sure get better…
I read that eating red meat aggravates it due to the oxalic acid…. try eliminating red meat and see if it helps. Also try capsaicin cream on the affected areas. Can’t believe he gave you lortabs while nursing………
I’m surprised that your doctor would prescribe Loritab in the first place because it isn’t considered effective in treating arthritis as it has no anti inflamatory action. second because the ingredients can pass through into breast milk. you do know you should wait 4 to 6 hours since your last dose before nursing don’t you?
An assistant – Muscles can have knots (trigger points) that make them tight which in turn put pressure on nerves and other things causing pain.
Molasses – a couple of swigs or Bananas 1 or 2 – both contain magnesium and potassium for muscles.
Try working with the principles taught in The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook by Davies.
I use a chiropractor and massage therapist with it
take the meds as told to you by the doctor and see if that helps
