The one thing that I'm sure will help, but I haven't been very consistent about is reducing the inflammation caused by my diet. Consider going to something like a Paloe diet and also take fish oil supplements.


This is what I was told would help.....not by a doctor, but a friend who also deals with OA. I understand there are many food items that can greatly contribute to inflammation.
