Arthritis Symptoms and Pain Relief

Arthritis Symptoms and Pain Relief

I was looking for arthritis symptoms online, and couldn't find anything that fit my situation, so I did my own research. I figured others might have the same problem, so I created this blog. I don't have a lot of time to work on it, so please feel free to post your own information.

I have no axe to grind here. I will not offer medical advice or treatment. This blog is for all to freely exchange ideas and anecdotal information. I would like to learn from other arthritis sufferers.

My doctor says I have arthritis in my neck, and it can be painful, especially on a cold morning, when I feel stiff and sore. I have found the best arthritis pain relief that works for me is running hot water over it in the shower, first thing in the morning. I just stand there, and the pain melts away, and the stiffness relaxes.

For the soreness, I don't even like to take aspirin!
I don't want to take pills, but that's just me.
I'm not a pill kind of guy.

I find that a chamomile or spearmint tea seems to soothe me and the pain is lessened. If things get really bad, I take non-prescription ibuprofen, but that's a last resort.
