Turmeric is a staple of traditional Chinese and Indian (Ayurvedic) medicine and a prime ingredient in curries. Claims: Reduces pain, inflammation and stiffness related to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoarthritis (OA); treats bursitis. What we know: A potent anti-inflammatory, curcumin blocks inflammatory cytokines and enzymes, including 5-LOX and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), the target of the drug celecoxib. Studies: In 2016, an industry-sponsored systematic review of randomized controlled trials found that 1,000 mg a day of curcumin reduced OA pain and inflammation as well as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like diclofenac and ibuprofen. Another 2016 study suggests curcumin might help prevent bone breakdown in people with RA. Dosage: Choose curcumin extract – whole turmeric is often contaminated with led. 500 mg capsules twice daily. Curcumin makes up only a small percentage of turmeric and can be hard to absorb. Be sure to check the standardized amount of curcumin when looking for a supplement, and choose brands that use phospholipids (Meriva, BCM-95), antioxidants (CircuWin) or nanoparticles (Theracurmin) for better absorption. *High doses of turmeric can act as a blood thinner and cause upset stomach. *Avoid turmeric/curcumin if you take blood thinners such as warfarin (Coumadin), are about to have surgery, are pregnant or have gallbladder disease.
美国老人会去医院检查后，考虑做人工膝盖，保质期10年。
我妈也是最近膝关节痛。带医院照了x-ray也就是关节炎。就是年龄大了几乎人人都会有的。医生让吃一般的消炎止痛药Naproxen每天三次。试试理疗。如果症状不缓解就建议给关节腔打润滑液，每年一次。你可以给你妈妈把naproxen吃起来，药店可以买。
听起来很美味，腿脚没病也能吃吗，不会吃出糖尿病吧？
谢谢mm, 她之前也试过一些膏药，不知道这种麝香的有没有试过，我问问她看
多谢mm,是呢，也带她去看过医生，看不出个所以然，Naproxen 倒是从来没试过，我给她买了试试看，这个应该没什么副作用吧？
谢谢分享，听起来可行哈
感谢mm信息，Puritan家的确实没吃过，试过Costco 的那几种，nature made， move free啥的，这下先mark好
🤝，老人年纪大了就出现各种问题，希望都能有所好转……
现在虎骨禁止入药，不会再有虎骨制品了，能产麝香的几种麝类都是禁捕的保护动物。药用麝香多为人造的，或从麝鼠类取的。
俺妈几十年的脚关节痛，有段时间痛的不能走路，最有用的是蜡疗。
开始时候是去医院做的，后来俺帮她在 target 买了个美手美肤用的蜡疗机，效果也很好。基本就是一星期两三次，把蜡块在机器里溶到安全热度，敷上脚关节，用纸袋子把脚包好，然后等蜡冷却之后拿掉就可以了。
俺妈在家自己做了一两年好了之后就停了，现在八十多岁，脚关节很少痛。

这个听起来很神奇啊，不知道膝关节是不是也能用
这个没有试过啊。
俺觉得如果是自己在家做，小面积的脚关节手关节比较可行。膝盖与腰背之类的面积比较大，蜡疗去医院做可能比较有效。

姜黄素是天然的消炎止痛药，负作用小，除了止痛抗炎作用之外，还有降糖、降胆固醇及稀释血液的作用，不像消炎止痛的西药那样伤胃及伤肝，西药不宜长期服用。 Costco有两种含糊椒素的姜黄胶囊，我妈吃了有效。上它网站看一下review 及google有关姜黄素 （turmeric/curcumin）了解多一些再决定要不要给你妈服用。
