Arthritis is the leading cause of disability in the country, with more than 50 million adults suffering with joint pain. It is most common in seniors, as aging and previous injuries make older adults more prone to joint inflammation.
Since May is Arthritis Awareness Month, we want to highlight some ways to reduce arthritis pain.
• Low-impact exercises like walking, biking, or swimming can improve joint function.
• Heating pads or warm baths can alleviate stiffness.
• Foods like tart cherries, colorful veggies, walnuts, seafood, and garlic provide anti-inflammatory benefits.
