Doing these 7 things may make your rheumatoid disease worse! ! !

Rheumatoid arthritis has always been a difficult problem for patients and medical circles. Fortunately, we now have a good way to control and stabilize the disease. The application of traditional Chinese medicine in our hospital has helped many rheumatoid patients to achieve clinical cure in the past ten years.

There are many rheumatoid patients treated and consulted in our hospital, and patients have many questions. In this regard, we will summarize the answers for patients and give more patients an understanding, which can better help patients recover.

Today, I will tell you why some patients with rheumatoid diseases will get worse, and even some patients have been treated, but there are signs of aggravation. The general reasons are summarized as follows:

No. 1

Non-compliance treatment

Compliance treatment here refers to cooperating with the doctor's treatment plan, taking medicine on time according to the instructions, exercising reasonably, actively preventing and checking regularly. If you don't believe the doctor's treatment plan, taking medicine for three days and fishing for two days will increase the risk of symptom deterioration and disease activity. This is true even if the non-compliance is unintentional (such as forgetfulness).

second

Habit of sedentary

A sedentary lifestyle will actually lead to an increase in pain, fatigue and weakness. Proper exercise can enhance muscle strength and improve the health of bones and joints.

third place

Pro-inflammatory food

Some foods can increase inflammation in the body. Sugar, saturated fat, trans fat, omega -6 fatty acids, refined carbohydrates, monosodium glutamate, gluten, aspartame and alcohol are all considered as pro-inflammatory foods and additives. Patients with rheumatoid arthritis should try to avoid or reduce the intake of pro-inflammatory food.

fourth

Excessive activity

Although regular sports activities are important, they are limited, so we should do what we can. Patients should learn to recognize their limits and stop before reaching them.

Fifth place

smoke

A comparative study published in the Annals of Rheumatology by researchers from Lund University in Sweden found that there is a clear correlation between smoking and more serious joint injuries.

Sixth

overpressure

Mental stress will also aggravate the condition of arthritis, make the pain unbearable and even lead to the recurrence of the disease. This is a vicious circle: disease leads to stress, and stress aggravates disease.

Seventh place

Negative pessimism

If patients with rheumatoid arthritis can maintain positive emotions at present, the pain will be lighter and the activities related to arthritis will be less limited; However, patients with rheumatoid arthritis with negative emotions have severe pain and more limited activities. We have a rheumatoid patient, who was very sad for a long time because of his mother's death, and was pessimistic about life because of his unsatisfactory work. Results No one thought that the rheumatoid factor exceeded 200 at the time of examination. Later, after medication and emotional adjustment, the condition gradually stabilized.

As we all know, rheumatoid disease is a refractory disease.

Generally because of the long course of disease.

Treatment and rehabilitation take longer.

So everyone must cooperate with the treatment.

Take medicine and exercise according to the doctor's advice.

Don't act blindly without authorization.

So as not to aggravate the condition.
