    Arthritis Remedies

    Arthritis is one of the oldest diseases known to mankind. It is characterized by an soreness of the joints, causing swelling and pain which can sometimes lead to immobility and, in severe cases, permanent disability. Occurring in anybody at any age, the exact cause of arthritis is yet unknown, but there are two theories: infection or a flaw in the body's immune system which causes it to attack its own joints and surrounding tissue.

    There are a lot treatment ways used to aid arthritic patients overcome this painful and debilitating disease, some of them as old as the disease itself (which is very old, indeed).

    Some types of arthritis call for the cooperation between physician, physical therapist, and orthopedic surgeon, as is the case with rheumatoid arthritis, one of the the bulk common forms of arthritis. Others call for only frequent rest balanced with exercise and proper diet. The the bulk common arthritis remedies obtainable are over the counter drugs like aspirins, analgesics, and non steroidal anti inflammatory drugs that can relieve the pain related with arthritis.

    However, with recent reports about unwanted side effects caused by some of these drugs, a lot people are turning to home arthritis remedies to treat arthritic pain. These arthritis remedies are largely unproven by concrete scientific proof but have been used by people for thousands of years with relatively effective results. With your doctor's advice, you could try some of these arthritis remedies and observe for yourself:

    Blackstrap Molasses

    To make these arthritis remedies, you need four teaspoons of blackstrap molasses and one quart of cranberry juice. Dissolve the blackstrap molasses in the cranberry juice. One mixture makes one serving. Drink a glass of this old home remedy to experience the results.

    Alternatively, you can also try dissolving 100 aspirins in a pint of rubbing alcohol. Rub it on the affected joints three periods a day and see the results.

    Mullein, Elm, Lobelia, and Cayenne Poultice

    The ingredients you need for these arthritis remedies are: 2 tbsp. mullein, 3 tbsp. granulated slippery elm bark, 1 tbsp. lobelia, and 1 tsp. cayenne. Mix everything in a bowl thoroughly then pour them in boiling water. When the mixture gets that pasty quality, pour everything on a piece of cloth and spread. Let cool for a few minutes before placing the cloth on swollen joints.

    Alternatively, you could try these arthritis remedies, following the same procedure: oil of origanum, oil of lobelia, oil of capsicum, and coconut oil.

    Herbal Mix

    There are a lot herbs that can be used as natural arthritis remedies. However, the trend with herbal arthritis remedies seems to be that dissimilar herbs are mixed together in order to create a synergistic and more effective combination. Below are some of the more average herbal arthritis remedies used:

    * Black cohosh, genitian root, angelica, Colombo, skull cap, valerian, buckthorn bark, and rue. Add a teaspoon of the mixture in a cup of boiling water. Let steep for a few minutes before drinking. The recommended daily dosage is three ? cups a day.
    * Wild cherry roots, burdock roots, Oregon grape roots. Wash three roots of each herb and chop them into tiny slices. Afterwards, place them in a gallon of water and let simmer for 30 minutes. Then, strain the liquid into bottle. A half glass of these arthritis remedies every morning before breakfast should garner some results.
