Conservative Treatments For Arthritis
Dr. Juan Carlos Suarez, Orthopedic Surgeon with Miami Orthopedics and Sports Medicine Institute, says in case of arthritis they usually start with activity modification. "If they're obese, or overweight, we're going to recommend weight loss, so we try to modify the modifiable risk factors, and then you can start with medications such as over-the-counter anti-inflammatories."
Medications, injections, diet, exercise, and weight loss are some of the conservative therapies to treat arthritis.
