 Joint problems / Knee Pain are one of the most common health problems worldwide and can severely impact productivity and people’s everyday lives. There are definite home remedies you can follow to ensure overall joint health throughout your life. Read on below in detail. 


Activity Modification


  • If you are using the computer regularly, position your body about 20-26 inches away from the monitor screen, and have your arms rest comfortably at your sides. This will help your overall posture and help your wrists relaxed. 

  • Swap between standing and sitting at regular intervals. Even if you have to sit at a desk all day for work, try to take brief walking or standing breaks to prevent stiffness. 

  • Take a warm bath or shower before bed to soothe any joint or other muscle pain before going to sleep. 

  • If you smoke or use tobacco products, make a strategy to help you quit. Tobacco usage can reduce bone mass and may result in osteoarthritis. 

 

Nutrition


  • Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables to increase your nutrient and antioxidant intake, which will help overall cell functioning. 

  • Increase your calcium intake in your daily diet to help improve bone strength. Add items such as broccoli, yoghurt, kale, figs, and salmon to your diet. 


Exercises


  • Water-based exercises are an excellent way to build up physical fitness without adding stress to your joints. You can perform strength training or aerobic exercises or swimming. 

  • Always perform a proper warm-up before engaging in exercise to get your muscles and joints up to speed. 

  • Design a strength-training program. Lifting weights will build up your muscle strength as well as improve bone density, which will stabilize your joints and help protect them from injury. 

  • Improve the strength of your core muscles. It will help to improve your overall balance and help prevent joint-damaging falls.

  • Practice yoga or other exercises such as tai chi or pilates. These exercises relieve stress and help in improving joint strength.
