You need to keep the joint strong and flexible to avoid worsening symptoms and pain.
While exercising the muscles around the afflicted joint may seem simple, research has shown that this type of natural arthritis pain relief is very effective. Lifting weights will keep the muscles strong and flexible, stabilizing the joint and ensuring less pressure on the actual grinding bone.
The muscles around the joint should also be stretched on a regular basis.
