To improve severe arthritis, it is recommended to take prescribed medications that can help modify the course of the disease. Medications known as DMARDs, such as methotrexate, are commonly prescribed for this purpose. It is important to follow up with a doctor to monitor the effectiveness and tolerance of these medications. In addition to medication, it is also important to stay active by consulting a physiotherapist or kinesiologist to ensure that activities do not damage the affected joints. While over-the-counter products may provide temporary relief, it is best to use them for only a few days until you can see a doctor and a physiotherapist for proper pain management.
