Anyone with arthritis

Starting to get it in my major joints. Anyone have any advice on pain relief.

2 Tylenol every six to 8 hour sometimes help

I have RA. I used to take prescription meds, but can’t while breastfeeding, so I just take Aleve/naproxen sodium every 12 hours. My rheumatologist said Aleve has the best success rate among her patients, so that’s what I take. It definitely helps me more than Tylenol or Ibuprofen.

You could potentially be seen to verify the specific cause of your problem. Ca simple option many people will try before that is to take an over the counter NSAID and see if it works.

I’ve been feeling pain in my left arm.
It’s not in my joints but more in the muscles.
Don’t know what the heck it could be?
It’s in my triceps area.

Anyone have an idea?

Yeah maybe it’s the Risperdal I’m taking.
But my arm is in such pain when I make certain movements.
It’s excruciating!

The worst part of it is my plantar faciitis which has limited my ability to walk distances and stand long periods of time. It is now developing in my knees and I feel intense pain when they are stuck in place for a long time so I have to bend them to relieve the pain. I am putting off taking drugs for as long as I can due to possible interactions with the meds i already take and fear of addiction. This is not a severe problem right now but I am afraid it would become serious fast if I worked a physical job again.

I have Osteoarthritis throughout my body from my jaws down to my toes. I take CBD oil 10mg in capsule form every morning. Then, I take Naproxen 500 mg twice a day with food. I do yoga for about 35 minutes most every day. I also take Fish oil capsules, one twice daily. These measures keep my pain totally under control. Without them, I literally would not be able to get out of bed.
