Avatar n tn There is evidence that olive oil can help reduce inflammation much like cherries are purported to do. There are many supplements on the market that claim to help but are untested by the FDA. Before you add any supplement or herbal remedy to your regime, please talk to your doctor.

Avatar f tn Cook more healthily with as little oil as possible. Boil, steam, grill or roast foods instead. Use olive oil or a little coconut oil. She still can have a small surgary treat now and then, but not every day. Health snacks are a piece of fruit, and handful of grapes, celery with peanut butter if she likes that. You can find more information on that on the web. Best to eat small portion meals and have a healthy snack in between. Ensure too that she has plenty of fluids and especially water.
Avatar m tn / I knew my condition was bad b/c of the amount of pain I am in but wasn't expecting that especially @ 32 with a 4 yr old and 7 month old!! Anyways, he adviced pain meds and synvisc-one injections until we couldn't control the pain enough. I tried the injections. I won't lie the are a bit painful. My right one was just uncomfortable. The left one hurt way worse. I have no idea why but it even swelled up and I had to stay off it about 24 hours b/c of all the fluid on it.

Avatar m tn It is moderate osteoarthritis and my doctor says I am nowhere close to needing a knee replacemet but I cannot live with this pain. I have tried tylenol, NSAIDs, and the steroid injection and my doctor will not prescribe anything else.
Avatar m tn He gave me a course of anti-biotics and some ear drops which are just olive oil. I put the drops in at about 10AM this morning and I couldn't hear anything. It's now 6.20pm and I still can't hear. I've slept in my side, used a tea towel soaked in hot water and q-tips but nothing works! This is really doing my head in. Does anybody know how to get olive oil out? Much appreciated!
Avatar n tn I was told to use olive oil on myself to prevent stretchmarks, I am now 33+5 and NO STRETCHMARKS! I don't know if it is from the olive oil or just my skin.... Has anyone else ever heard of this or used olive oil???
Avatar m tn Is it good to use olive oil on a red spot/mark after the scab fell off the skin? would it help to fade it, and therefore blend it in better with the rest of the skin?
Avatar f tn I asked her what she was doing diff and she said she gets every single one of her patients to rub a bit of olive oil around the opening of the vagina. And just massage it in. Start doing it as soon as. Im keen to do it but just wondering if anyone else has and if its safe?
Avatar f tn I have not heard anything about a new procedure but I did hear that there is a new pain medication called Nucynta (Tapentadol) which is a mu-opiod agonist analgesic. It is structurally similar to Tramadol.
Avatar m tn Bones spurs growing on your joint is osteoarthritis. I have it on my bad knee. I saw the xray of my knee and could see the cartilage had worn away in part of the knee joint and I could see a little spikey bone sticking down. There is no cure for osteoarthritis, only a replacement of the knee joint if the condition is severe.
587778 tn?1261397118 It does not matter if I am standing, sitting, walking, or lying down, I am in pain constantly for the last week. I am wondering if I have re-injured my knee or is this how mild osteoarthritis feels?
Avatar m tn knee osteoarthritis . Is electrical nerve stimulation(tens) an effective therapy for providing pain relief?
Avatar f tn avocados, extra virgin olive oil, coconut oil. Avoid the bad fats: animal fats, greese, fried, butter. Also, maybe you should try limiting your sugars, you might be eating too much fruit and in turn high sugar levels. You might need to now and then get whole grain gluten free grains because your blood type may be a type that relies on grains to lose weight. Maybe cut your milk to 1% or skim or switch to soy or almond milk. Avoid alcohol.
535822 tn?1443976780 The controversy over canola oil is that it comes from a plant, rapeseed, that has some toxicity if you eat the leaves prepared improperly, and partly economic, because canola oil is largely from Canada. They even created the name canola because they didn't think anyone would buy rape oil! I use it, but I think BM believed it to be harmful. It's a good high heat cooking oil, particularly the higher oleic containing versions.
Avatar m tn I'm 32 and I've never had any sort of leg, knee, or joint problem. Lately I've noticed that when I plant my left foot and pivot on it to turn my body to the right, my left knee makes a popping sound. For a few days I could feel something move in the same knee when I would walk down stairs. It felt like it was located to the left (outside) of the center of the knee. That went away. The right knee doesn't have any issues.
Avatar m tn i was also wondering about the osteoarthritis as my dr told me that i have severe degenerative osteoarthritis of the lower spine (I forgot the numbers), hips, left shoulder and both feet. I had major surgery last summer and mesh was used to attach part of my bowel to my spine. My dr figures that this may have jump-started the arthritis issues. Currently i have probs walking, bending and overall it hurts to be on my feet for more than 20 mins at a time.
Avatar f tn Generalized osteoarthritis is yet another subset of osteoarthritis. Most people know the meaning of primary osteoarthritis or secondary osteoarthritis, but generalized osteoarthritis is a lesser known term. Answer: Subsets of Osteoarthritis Primary osteoarthritis is characterized by joint pain, stiffness, limited range of motion, and weakness. Primary osteoarthritis is also referred to as idiopathic, meaning, there is no known underlying or predisposing cause.
Avatar f tn Get your knee ligaments checked along with quadriceps and hamstrings. The 6 knee ligaments which might get affected are the menisci, collaterals and cruciate ligaments. If you have chronic knee pain in both of your legs then rule out osteoarthritis or other joint problems like Rheumatoid arthritis and other systemic diseases. Go for an X-ray and follow up with an orthopedician for a proper diagnosis. Take care!

Avatar n tn Hi, I am recovering from a partial menisectomy of my lateral meniscus in my right knee, Although it went great and I am DELIGHTED to be back running again, I was recently informed that I lost 40-50 percent of my meniscus during surgery because it was so torn up. Does this mean that osteoarthritis is inevitable in my near future? I am only 16, and hope to be running as long as I can. :( Is it possible that osteoarthritis could end my pain-free life at age 30?
1069378 tn?1255215132 , but my knee never healed and in fact the pain has spread to other parts of my knee and my knee swells very easily when I do anything (upright, sitting, sleeping). The MRI shows that my lateral meniscus is torn again and x-rays show I have osteoarthritis. One of the orthopedic surgeons I saw suggested trying Synvisc injections before resorting to surgery, especially since the surgery will involve removing the rest of my lateral meniscus which will in turn worsen the osteoarthritis.
Avatar f tn I have been taking Celebrex (200 mg a day) for about five years for bone on bone knee osteoarthritis. It has worked well for controlling my pain (not perfect but pretty good). I also get some lower back pain (combination of osteoarthritis and nerve stuff) that only happens when I over-do (like trying to garden, etc.). I typically need a day or two of Vicodin for that as the Celebrex does not seem to work for that.
Avatar n tn Glucosamine supplements are widely used for osteoarthritis, particularly knee osteoarthritis. In osteoarthritis, cartilage -- the rubbery material that cushions joints -- becomes stiff and loses its elasticity. This makes the joint prone to damage and may lead to pain, swelling, loss of movement, and further deterioration.
