My joints are torn up

[Guest guest]

Hi , I've never had pain as bad as you describe, but I've had it bad from

time to time. When it does happen to me I soak my foot in a bucket of hot water

and just rest as much as I can. It goes away and most of the time i live

relatively pain free but i'm under no illusions the pain won't be back one day.

Just take it as it comes, deal with it, and keep on going. . . that's what I do,

and maybe it's all any of us can do.

Subject: My joints are torn up

 

This last flare up hit my knees and elbows badly was in tears for a few hours of

it also. The inflammation lasted like 2-3 days hard core. Now that the

inflammation is gone my joints feel torn up and always sore and cracky. I

remember this feeling from my first flare and I dunno this stuff is horrible.

Its been a week now and I really dont feel inflammed but what damgage has been

done is done. Has any one else get flares like this. I have been on the couch

for a week now trying to heal the joint damage but it doesnt seem to be getting

better. Will this eventually stop hurting or heal my joints? Do you guys go thru

this to? Drives me crazy insane.
