Review

Pavel Platonov, 38 years old, Petrozavodsk

At school they were still playing football and I fell, simply on my knees. Of course, our field had no grass, and the glass cut my leg. They put stitches and everything will go away, young man. After some time, pain began to arise, but I did not pay attention. Old wounds let's say. But when I was examined, I realized that this was not the case. Part of the joint has died. In general, I don’t know what my knee was holding on to. Treatment was prescribed to somehow stop the further course of the disease. It's good that we made it on time. But the aching pain continues. Calcium doesn’t help, and joint pills don’t either. The only thing that really helped was a compress of wormwood and propolis for rubbing. After a course of such procedures, the discomfort subsides. But of course you need to repeat and repeat the courses.

When will herbs help?

It is better to use medicinal plants for prevention, especially with regard to arthrosis. Even medications are not effective in the later stages of this disease, not to mention herbs, which have a slow and mild effect. Herbal medicine can only be an addition to the main treatment.

Herbs are suitable for the prevention of the following diseases:

• inflammatory origin: arthritis, bursitis, synovitis, chondritis, meniscitis, gout;
• degenerative-dystrophic nature: arthrosis, including osteoarthrosis, osteochondrosis, osteoporosis;
• autoimmune origin: rheumatoid arthritis.

Any disease on the list must be treated on time, since its complications can cause disability and problems with movement.

If pain, crunching in the joint, swelling, or redness of the joint area occurs, you must immediately go to the hospital and, with the permission of an arthrologist or orthopedist, begin herbal medicine, which will prevent the progression of pathological processes.
