While the recent shifting seasons often signify the flurry of fun and excitement associated with the holidays, the fluctuating temperatures and changing atmospheric pressures may bring on some more unwelcome feelings such as joint pain, decreased range of motion, stiffness, redness, and inflammation—especially for the more than 350 million people in the world suffering from some form of arthritis.
In fact, osteoarthritis, a chronic form of arthritis in which cartilage is worn down, causing the bones to grind painfully against each other at the joints, is the single leading cause of disability in older adults. This problem continues to grow alongside the aging population, as well as the increased commonality of health factors that contribute to arthritis such as obesity. Even more concerning is the United Nation’s prediction that by 2050, 130 million people in the world will suffer from osteoarthritis. Of those 130 million, 40 million of these people will be severely disabled due to the disease, according to that same prediction.
Whether arthritis manifests itself as a throbbing pain in your wrists, a stiff spine, buckling ankles, a sharp, stabbing pain in your hips and shoulders, or creaking knees, these aches can be debilitating and disruptive to everyday life. Don’t let arthritis rob you of the daily joys you deserve to experience, especially during the excitement of the holiday season, such as watching your grandchildren tear open their presents on Christmas morning or greeting the carolers on your doorstep. Don’t let arthritis keep you isolated from your loved ones, paralyzed in pain during seasonal pressure shifts.
