How bad is arthritis pain?

PEOPLE WITH ARTHRITIS:How do you cure Arthritis pain?

  • What has helped you? My grandmothers feet ache really bad...:/

  • Answer:

    I have osteoarthritis in the severe degenerative stages and severe degenerative neurological damages. I've had surgery eight times on my lower back, three times on my cervical spine, one shoulder, one knee and my left hand has a ten inch bar in it. I also have 32 screws in my back along with 32 pieces of wire. Nothing has slowed down the process of the arthritis and the pain at times is overwhelming and, I've wished for death instead of living in this pain. I think my doctors have had me on everything on the market, it either interacts with my heart and I have to stop or it's to expensive, or, it doesn't work. I have been on Vicodin for many years and it keeps the edge off. I keep hoping for something new everyday. You can try ice packs or heat, whatever works well for you. I've tried Tylenol and Ibuprofen. I've been on Hydrocontain and Hydrocordone, both over $360.00 a script a month. A pain clinic didn't work. All I can say is "Good luck"

For feet pain (just general feet pain) putting chest rub on the feet and covering them with socks can do wonders! It sort of warms up the feet. You could also try heat packs and pain killers and keep her hydrated! I wish you the best, as I know consistant pain is tough!

I've had severe arthritis in my shoulders for 10 years. I was 2 weeks away from surgery when a friend suggested that I take a large dose of magnesium, followed by smaller doses for several days after. I took 1500 mg's, followed by about 7 days of 250 mg's. The first dose caused some frequent loose stool, but my pain went away completely and has pretty much stayed away since. I asked my doctor about this and he told me that he couldn't explain why magnesium worked, but that it was harmless. If your grandmother is taking other medications, such a coumodin, lipitor, etc., she should check with her doctor to see if there is an interaction which might be harmful. I wish her well. Persistent pain is very difficult to endure.
