DO YOU CREAK LIKE AN OLD HOUSE?
As we get older, the natural aging process can produce a variety of ailments which no one wants! These include diseases of the nervous system, soft tissue and bones. Arthritis is one of the most common. Another common disorder is osteoporosis. This is a medical term applied to bones that are less dense (or thinner) than usual. People with osteoporosis are more likely to break their bones, which is especially common in the hip, back and wrist. Osteoporosis can occur in men and women, but occurs more frequently in women.
Tendonitis and bursitis can cause stiffness and severely limit mobility. Rheumatoid arthritis, Lupus and nerve degeneration are more serious conditions that also need professional evaluation.
There are many non-surgical treatments available for connective tissues inflammation, nerve degeneration and bone disease. If you feel stiff and have numbness or pain, schedule an appointment with a physician who specializes in the treatment of these disorders. Learn as much as you can about your condition, and become active in your fight back!
