Guest guest Posted July 1, 2005 Report Share Posted July 1, 2005 Hi Prathba, Welcome to the group. This is Steph in Virginia in the US. Some of the meds I take may not be available in India. I'm 27 and have had arthritis for almost 6 years. My meds are: Azulfidine EN (the brand name for Sulfasazine), Ibuprofen, Methotrexate, Folic Acid, Flexerall, Prednisone & Remicade. I was in a car accident almost a month ago and used ice for the injuries I sustained. Otherwise, my arthritis symptoms are relieved more with heat. My favorite is Thermacare Heat Wraps. They are sold in drug stores here. They are wraps for shoulder, lower back, neck, wrist and knee. They work really well when I have acute symptoms. Take care, ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~>Hi All,>>I'm prathba, 25 yrs old.
