Eat a healthy diet

A proper diet cannot cure rheumatoid arthritis, but it can relieve symptoms. If a certain food causes your condition to worsen, such as "redness, swelling, heat, and pain" in the joints, stop eating it first and observe whether the symptoms are relieved. Eat this food again after a period of time and observe whether the symptoms worsen. Once you determine that a certain food makes your symptoms worse, it is best to eat less of it. Eat less animal fats. Animal fats are extracted from animal fats and have a chemical composition of saturated fatty acids. They can increase the body's inflammatory response and are harmful to rheumatoid arthritis patients. Eat more vegetables: can improve arterial function and reduce the risk of cardiovascular events.

Peat therapy

Burn the clay into black and yellow color, grind it into powder and mix it with water, apply it all over the body or affected area, or pour the powder into the bathtub for bathing. This therapy has a significant effect on rheumatism and has a history of hundreds of years in Europe. In Germany, there are nearly a hundred "Qintan Hospitals" that use peat therapy to treat rheumatism.

Solarium therapy

When the sun is strongest at noon in summer, the affected area can be exposed to the sunlight, and the rest of the body can be shielded from the sunlight with an umbrella. Generally, the upper part of the body is irradiated for about 20 minutes at a time, and the lower part is irradiated for about 30 minutes at a time.

Dehumidification at home: open windows frequently

Unless it is raining heavily outdoors, you should always open the windows for ventilation. During the rainy season, it often rains heavily outside and the temperature is even wetter than inside. What should we do? If it rains heavily outside, you can close the windows and turn on the fan (don't blow it towards people) to maintain air circulation.

Also, many people have the good habit of exercising, but for patients with rheumatism, be careful not to do morning exercises too early and do not go out for exercise in rainy weather.

Rheumatism pain stay away from water

Also avoid wading in the rain, especially women should not take cold showers during their menstrual period. Some popular miniskirts expose the knees, which makes it easy to catch cold.
