Will You Miss This? Finally Arm Pain Exposed!

Arm pain can be very agonizing, amid numerous sets of tender to excruciating conditions (100), increasingly resulting in permanent joint injury, malformation and loss of flexability. Inflammation of extremity joints is characteristic of the disorder. Chronic pain, disability and death are unfortunate results.

Joint inflammation has an predictable incidence of 1 to 2%. Prevalence increases with age, approaching 5% in women over age 55. The typical annual frequency in the United States is about 70 per 100,000 per annum. Rheumatoid arthritis occurs two to three times more in women than in men. Although rheumatoid arthritis may present at any age, patients most commonly are first affected in the third to sixth decades.

Joint inflammation, collectively affect nearly 46 million adults and 300,000 children in the U.S. It is not selective. The condition can happen to anyone. All joint inflammation conditions impact the musculoskeletal system and specifically the joints - where two or more bones meet.

Joint inflammation problems include:

  • pain
  • stiffness
  • inflammation
  • damage to joint cartilage (the tough, smooth tissue that covers the ends of the bones, enabling them to glide against one another) and surrounding structures.

In these conditions, joint inflammation can cause damage to virtually any bodily organ or system, including the heart, lungs, kidneys, blood vessels and skin. Pain-associated conditions principally influence the muscles and the bones.

Joint inflammation and related conditions are a major cause of disability in the U.S, costing more than $124 billion per year such as:

  • lost wages
  • production
  • millions of people lose their health, physical abilities and independence.
  • growing toll on on the health system as people age
  • reduced coverage by employer’s insurance

  

Arm Joint Inflammation - Underlying Cause & Relief 

With graduating arm joint inflammation conditions, the majority of cases (90%) will be seen with cold sensations at the site of pain. 10% of cases are seen with hot to touch joints and related tissues. The primary appraoch in Chinese medicine is to counter the hot condition with cold methods to achieve a neutral state. This neutral zone relieves and corrects the tissues surrounding blockage in the channels. The opposite is true for cold conditions. Heat in the form of traditional Chinese herbs will alter the joint environment by establishing neutrality. Improved circulation and energy results in progressively removing toxicity (unflitered blood, de-oxygenated blood, unnatural tissue). The obstruction may be subtle to extreme in density but in all cases, to remove the barrier, herbal formulation needs to counter the underlying condition before the impediment can move on. Additionally, dietary recommendations would follow this same logic to support the corrective action.

Additional attention needs to be given to the general emotional state that may indirectly support the blockage. Particularly, the irrational beliefs that contribute to the person remaining in stressful states rather than relaxing as needed for recovery.Individuals focussed on their health understand their boundaries and support a restorative lifestyle.

Will You Miss This? Finally Joint Pain Exposed!

JOINT INFLAMMATION is a very painful, with multiple sets of conditions (100), progressively leading to joint damage, deformity and loss of mobility. Extremity joint swelling is standard for this condition. Chronic pain, disability and death are unfortunate results.

Joint problems have a estimated probability of 1 - 2%. Prevalence increases with age, approaching 5% in women over age 55. The average annual incidence in the United States is about 70 per 100,000 annually. Rheumatoid arthritis occurs two to three times more in women than in men. Although rheumatoid arthritis may present at any age, patients most commonly are first affected in the third to sixth decades.

Joint inflammation, collectively affect nearly 46 million adults and 300,000 children in the U.S. It is not selective. The condition can happen to anyone. All arthritic conditions impact the musculoskeletal system and specifically the joints - where two or more bones meet.

Joint inflammation problems include:

  • pain
  • stiffness
  • damage to joint cartilage (the tough, smooth tissue that covers the ends of the bones, enabling them to glide against one another) and surrounding structures.

 

HOW DO WE GET JOINT INFLAMMATION?

This condition involves obstruction of the blood due to hot-damp, drying and/or drying characteristics. The condition includes:

  • cold or hot and painful joints
  • difficulty in flexing and extending the joints
  • aversion to cold or hot with attraction to the opposite condition
  • In some cases the limbs and joints will be aching, numb, painful
  • overall physical body feels heavy.
  • tongue is pale or the opposite

     

 There are graduating arthritic conditions where the site of pain and deformity are more intense, with heat or cold predominating, however, the primary appraoch is to get the obstruction to move. Health is re-established by countering imbalanced internal srtates of wind-cold/hot-damp/dry and altering external situations contributing to obstruction. Additional attention needs to be given to the general emotional state that may indirectly support the blockage.

 

HOW DO WE GET BETTER?

 

JOINT INFLAMMATION: FOOD THERAPY  & HERBAL HERBS

“We are what we eat.” Most of us would agree that most conditions of imbalance are determined by what we put in our mouth. We unkowingly create imbalances by not being aware of how critical this area is, especially in the latter years.When we find out the supplements and foods weakens our essence and immunity then it would behove us to learn our constitution and which food that nourish balance. Below, you can begin to choose foods that deliver balance for this obstructive condition:

“When the heart is calm, pain seems negligible.” — Inner Classic

  HERB FORMULAS FOR PAIN   Formulas are created and rendered, taking into consideration, a person’s constitution, environment, life energy (qi), lifestyle and emotional status to name a few concerns. Traditional Chinese Herbs and medicine focuses on bringing all these areas into balance. The primary element is to make an herbal composition with specific emphasis on painful joints while correcting the underlying condition in the body without creating more physical problems.

Additionally, the quality of the herbs are not the same. If lesser quality is contained in a formula then the results will not hold up as indicated in research findings. While it may sound impressive to make marketing statements that a formula containing an herb is beneficial it is not enough. The quality of herbs are very important. Ginseng alone has more than 6 grades and each level provides a different result. Quality, alone, can determine whether the formula works or not. A seasoned herbologist does not skimp in this area, while many commercial manufacturing operations prefer profit when dealing with innocent distributers, who sell to wholesalers, retailers and then to you the consumer. This practice in America gives herbology and products a bad name. Employing herbal deficiency practices will gradually wear away customer trust so when true herbologists offer their services the challenge for customers to believe in our craft is hard.

JOINT INFLAMMATION takes time to develop and when the underlying cause is acknowleged then its possible to resolve rapidly. According to Traditional Chinese herbs and medicine, the primary problem underlying arthritis is obstruction with painful results. To varying degrees, liver and kidney depletion coupled with energy deficiency will result in exhaustion.
