View allI'm really worried about my mom. She's 38, and for the past two years, she's been dealing with knee joint pains. She's not too keen on going to the hospital, but the pain isn't too severe. Last year, the doctor told her that her knee joint's starting to rub after a scan. He also suggested she try to lose some weight. The pain gets worse when she walks a lot or climbs stairs frequently. I usually apply oil to her legs, and sometimes she wears a knee cap. The pain is more intense in one leg than the other. Can you suggest some ways to help reduce her pain and maybe offer some diet advice?
To alleviate your mom's knee joint pain, suggest she: loses weight (aiming for 55-60 kg) through a balanced diet and exercise like walking, swimming, or yoga; strengthens surrounding muscles through physical therapy or exercises like squats, lunges, and leg press; uses proper footwear, knee caps, and walking aids as needed; applies heat or cold therapy; and considers alternative therapies like acupuncture or massage. Dietary recommendations include: increasing omega-3 fatty acids (found in fish, nuts, and seeds), vitamin D (dairy, sunlight), and calcium (dairy, leafy greens) intake; avoiding processed foods, sugar, and saturated fats; and drinking plenty of water.

I've been feeling really concerned lately about some joint pain I've been having. I'm 48 years old, and I've started experiencing pain in my knee joints. Along with that, the small joints in my fingers are also hurting and feel pretty stiff in the mornings. I don't have any other health issues right now, but I'm really curious about natural treatments to help manage this pain. Could you give me some advice on what I can do to start addressing this?
