    Pills and Prescriptions, Medications and Drugs

    Treating from the inside, outward

    Medications are one technique of dealing with the troubles at hand. They do have side-effects and should not be taken lightly. Counter-indicators and drug-interactions need to be explored and analgesics may only have limited effectiveness. Pain management can very easily be your biggest and major concern with arthritis, as would be your feelings in coping with what the disease is doing to you. That component we will obtain to a little later. Coping, living via the pain is oftentimes not enough, but the starting blocks for a lot with the illnesses of the joints in question here. Regardless of the type of arthritis, there is help.

    There are a lot reasons people pop a pill or look for OTC (over-the-counter), prescription medications for pain respite for arthritis. Here are but a few from published sources and interviews – You will perhaps be able to contribute quite a few of your own (feel free to do so)…

    § As a last resort
    § At least doing something
    § For immediate relief
    § For managing the condition
    § for mild to moderate osteoarthritis
    § For painkilling mainly
    § For when the pain is at its worst
    § Getting rid of discomfort, immobility or lack of movement.
    § Instant relief, temporary relief
    § It can be used safely over times of time without too much risk
    § Limited dosages
    § living BETTER with the situation
    § on doctor’s orders
    § Self-medication and hands-on self-management of the pain and condition – feeling empowered and inspired to survive with it and not be overwhelmed by it!
    § severity attacks
    § to minimize re-occurrence
    § to alleviate inflammation
    § to treat knee arthritis or osteoarthritis
    § treats the symptoms
    § When it starts

    So, what are your factors and rationale for taking/not taking medication for your condition? That is a personal and individual choice and that is the beauty of it – everyone can pick their treatment that is MOST suited for them, despite side-effects, they do work for some people in minimizing their pain.
