Deforming osteoarthritis, or arthrosis of the joints, is one of the most common diseases associated with the depletion of cartilage tissue. The disease can occur as a result of various disorders, for example, a malfunction in metabolic processes, as well as injuries. Often people go to the hospital with a disease such as arthrosis of the elbow joint, as well as the hip - these are the most common types.
It should be remembered that the disease can lead a person to disability and disability. But do not be upset, there is a special medicine for the joints, which will be discussed later. Now you should turn to the causes of arthrosis:
- poor blood supply to the joints;
- old age;
- disturbed metabolism;
- injuries of various kinds;
- comorbidities - hemophilia, arthritis, etc.
Often, arthrosis appears in people who lead an active lifestyle and do not calculate the loads that they can do. As a result of intense physical activity, the joints fail and the cartilage begins to thin.
To find out how to treat arthrosis, the first thing to do is to see a doctor. The fact is that the disease can only be born or have a neglected form. If arthrosis has just begun to manifest itself, then a course of hirudotherapy will be useful at this stage, i.e. leeches treatment. It usually takes six to ten sessions to improve the patient's condition.
It is worth noting that some people need to take joint medicine due to their lifestyle or profession. For example, musicians - pianists, guitarists - can get arthrosis due to frequent playing of an instrument, as a result of which the joints become rough and brittle. Moreover, arthrosis of the hands in the early stages is almost not noticeable. It all starts with harmless clicks in the joints of the fingers, then you can hear sharp loud sounds, which are accompanied by weak pain sensations. Osteoarthritis of the elbow joint can completely limit the amplitude of arm flexion. Sharp pain will also appear.
This is why some people need to take joint medicine to prevent disease. In any case, at the first signs of arthrosis, you should consult a doctor. It may be that the noted symptoms indicate the development of another disease.
A medicine for joints that helps prevent or slow down the development of arthrosis is called a chondroprotector. The main chondroprotectors are glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate.

Along with the use of drugs, it is worth wearing special knee pads or orthopedic insoles - this depends on the area of \u200b\u200bthe disease. Massage will be useful, but even here it is worth contacting a professional.
