It is recommended that “less climbing, more swimming, more walking” How to protect the joints, it is important to lose weight. The main cause of knee degeneration is long-term wear and tear, weight bearing and aging of the joints, coupled with the loss of calcium, many middle-aged and elderly women are the main victims of knee arthritis. Therefore, weight control is the most direct way to reduce the weight on the knee joint and is very important to slow down the aging of the joint. Weight loss is inseparable from exercise, but improper exercise can also wear out the joints, so it is clear that the key is that there should be a proper method and activity level. “Less climbing, more swimming, more walking is the best way to exercise. Climbing can easily lead to wear and tear on the knee joints, and older people must choose carefully. It is recommended that mountain climbers, especially the elderly, try to avoid steeper slopes and multiple steps, choose a slightly gentler path and climb slowly, or hand-hold the wall or railing, or use a walking stick and wait for both feet to be on the same step before taking the next step. Osteoarthritis patients want to exercise! Choose a scientific way to exercise There is a common confusion among osteoarthritis patients at present, should they be active with osteoarthritis?

Physical exercise to do a full preparation activities, gently stretch the knee joint for at least 1 minute. 2. Change your position and posture often. Pay attention to changing your position and posture and avoid sitting or standing for a long time.

Eat enough vegetables and fruits Joints, like other parts of the body, need enough vegetables and fruits. Eating at least five vegetables and fruits a day is the only way to get micronutrients – vitamins and minerals – that you can’t get from other foods. The body needs calcium, zinc, and vitamin C to heal, and multivitamin tablets may be effective, but there is no better source than fresh food. Also, refined oils can help the joints. Adding deep-sea fish (or Omega-3 substitutes), olive oil, avocados and almonds to your recipes a few times a week can help significantly. It is important to protect the knee from cold and dampness because the knee joint is “skin and bones”, lacking muscle and fat protection, and does not receive sufficient heat supply, so the temperature is lower than other parts of the body. Don’t sleep in dark and humid places, and don’t rinse your knee with cold water immediately when you sweat profusely in summer.
