I was diagnosed a few years ago with RA but no-one ever put me on anything for it. Some days I'm swollen some days I'm not.
I can not speak of any remedies but I am aware that Lavender Oil and other such oils tend to ease the pains involving RA. I don't believe at this point in time there is a remedy or cure ..... just ways to help through flare ups and the chronic pain thereof.
I wear compression gloves for hand swelling. If you have access to cannabis esp. RSO oil it helps more than opiates. It's hard and truth is opiates do work for RA.
Homeopathic Arnica 6c
Helps with all types of inflammation and pain. You have to keep taking it.
My daughter has juvenile fibromyalgia and joint hyper mobility syndrome. This works better than Ibroufen.
Go to a health store or good pharmacy.
Best of luck to you
Hi I dont have RA but do have OA and a lot of inflammation in general. I use Inflamax Forte. My chiropractor sells it but I believe Swanson's has it, maybe amazon as well. I am also fighting my health insurance company to cover Celebrex which I find helpful as long as I keep it up. I experience a lot less stiffness and swelling when on it. I hope this helps. Hugs remember your not alone.
Ibuprofen is really great for thr pain and inflammation. My husband takes 3 800 mg of ibuprofen per dayy. He can hardly function with out it. The only problem is that its very hard on the kidneys. So now I can't take it any more.
