It is generally accepted that joint diseases most often occur after injuries. In athletes, arthrosis is caused by frequent overloads; in overweight people, it is caused by heavy weight. Treatment of osteoarthritis may be necessary for diabetes and osteoporosis, against the background of hormonal changes or unfavorable heredity. All this is true, if not for one “but”.
Recent discoveries by scientists indicate that one of the main causes of degenerative changes in joints is psychogenic in nature. We are talking about chronic stress in which the patient lives. Why does this happen and can it be avoided?
Do you live in constant stress? Expect joint problems
Psychosomatic causes of rheumatoid arthritis
This type of arthritis threatens permanent joint deformation, incapacity, and disability. Only older people are considered to be at risk. Psychosomatic theories prove that arthritis also develops at a young age due to an unfavorable emotional background. Long lasting experiences cause an overabundance of corticosteroids. At the same time, muscle tone increases, blood vessels and nerve endings are compressed. The patency of impulses and blood microcirculation are disrupted. The muscles become blocked and the production of joint fluid (hyaluronic acid) decreases. The result is thinning and cracking of the cartilage tissue, the beginning of the inflammatory process. Psychosomatic causes of rheumatoid arthritis:
- sudden destructive stressful situation (dismissal, divorce, death, illness);
- pessimistic thinking;
- frustration and anxiety.
Arthritis develops in women and men with a high level of aggressiveness: excessive excitability of the nervous system does not allow them to deal with difficulties calmly. This problem is typical for those who chose the wrong profession - instead of a policeman or military man, they became a banker or an office worker.
The mechanism of arthrosis development due to stress
With prolonged experiences in the human body, the level of corticosteroid hormones increases. Biochemists are convinced that their excess stops the production of hyaluronic acid, an important component of synovial fluid, or joint lubrication. Gradually, dehydration and drying out of the cartilage occurs, which becomes thinner and cracks - arthrosis is evident!
A large amount of stress hormones worsens the permeability of capillaries, and with it the blood flow in damaged vessels. If, against such a hormonal background, trauma or microtrauma to the joint occurs, this accelerates the deformation of the cartilage.
Start thinking positively, get rid of chronic stress - it will be easier to cope with arthrosis!
Arthrosis and psychological disorders
Hypertonicity of skeletal muscles, prolonged compression are the causes of destruction and deformation of movable joints. The causes and nature of pain with arthrosis differ.
- Internal tension is deformation of the joint.
- The need to constantly prove one’s worth is the concentration of pain on the left side of the joint.
- A person is “burning” with work, competition – pain on the right.
Arthrosis is a symbol of psychophysical exhaustion. It develops if a person does not know how to enjoy life, does not relax and does not rest. Joints literally wear out.
Which negative emotions are especially harmful to joints?
Medicine does not give an exact answer to this question. The information presented below is the result of individual studies and can be excellent food for thought for those who are concerned about their health.
- Coxarthrosis
Scientists have noticed that treatment for arthrosis of the hip joint is usually required by people who are pleasant in communication, not prone to conflicts, restrained and calm. Irritation, anxiety, and suppressed anger provoke the release of corticosteroids into the blood, which interfere with the production of synovial fluid. Internal tension in the nervous system causes spasms and hypertonicity of the skeletal muscles, especially strong in the hip area, which strongly “pinches” the damaged joint. This accelerates its deformation.
In Western countries, where it is customary to smile to hide your weaknesses, the percentage of people with coxarthrosis is constantly growing. After all, suppressing emotions often leads to a severe depressive-stressful state.
Coxarthrosis often affects reserved, non-conflict people who tend to suppress their emotions
- Gonarthrosis
Knee arthrosis occurs, according to researchers, as a result of severe stress or difficult experiences. This happens, for example, after a divorce, dismissal from work, loss of loved ones or other difficult stages in life.
Gonarthrosis is diagnosed in people who are emotionally tired, who instead of interest in life have fatigue accumulated over the years. This category includes, for example, women “50+” who are forced to work, manage the household and deny themselves everything. Even when they do not yet need treatment for osteoarthritis, since their knees are still healthy, they still walk with difficulty, as if “with weights on their legs.”
How to become energetic and cheerful again? How to regain your vital energy? We present 10 ways to get rid of lethargy, laziness and apathy, and therefore give a worthy rebuff to arthrosis:
A person without vital energy stoops, his legs swell, blood circulation in them is disrupted - vascular thrombosis or varicose veins occurs. The knee joints gradually lose flexibility, and the cartilage in them loses moisture (due to the lack of normal blood supply). The cartilage tissue dries out and cracks - arthrosis begins.
Gonarthrosis in men develops against the background of hyper-responsibility. However, since representatives of the stronger sex more often allow themselves “little joys,” they face the problem of treating severe arthrosis less often than women. In turn, it has been noted that the final stages of this disease are observed mainly in intelligent but critical people prone to chronic dissatisfaction.

Nervous-related diseases of the leg joints
The joints of the legs are responsible for moving in space. If pain appears in these joints, a person cannot move forward freely. Internal pressures, fears, and restrictions hinder mobility and inhibit development in physical and social terms.
Hip joint
The cause of pain and deterioration in mobility is “burnout” at work, careerism. A person is constantly trying to overtake someone. There is irrational rivalry. The joint of the right leg suffers - this pattern of behavior is typical for the professional sphere, the left leg - for the family environment and personal relationships.
Ankle pain
Connections determine the direction of movement. The ankle symbolizes the current state of affairs. When you are afraid of making a mistake, choosing the “wrong road,” painful symptoms appear. By the way, bruises and sprains of the big toe are an attempt to separate from the mother, to throw off her power.
Inflammation of the knees
This is a symbol of support, confidence, support. Knee pain torments a person if he is overly proud and arrogant, does not know how to forgive and ask for forgiveness, and wants to stand firm under any circumstances. Joints lose flexibility due to the inability to pay tribute to parents, partner, or friend. Damage and tears of the meniscus are the “stigma” of people with excessively high self-esteem.
Pathogenesis
- The most important are pathological changes in receptors and nerve pathways, nerve ganglia, ganglia, and plexuses.
Degenerative-dystrophic processes in the peripheral apparatus of the nervous system of the internal genital organs (cause: infectious-toxic exposure, which leads to the development of ganglioneuritis - inflammatory damage to individual sympathetic nodes, truncates - several nodes; damage to axons and demyelination turns the nerve fiber into an ectopic pacemaker, reacting to any changes and capable of constant self-excitation)
- The vascular component is extremely important, namely the disturbance of blood circulation in the pelvic organs, local parts of the small pelvis, primarily the formation of venous stagnation, varicose veins and venous plexuses of the organs and walls of the pelvis. Chronic venous congestion of blood vessels leads to irritation of the receptors of the serous integument of the internal genital organs and peritoneum, which is recognized as pain. Both complete and partial prolapse of the internal organs of the abdominal cavity, the presence of tumor-like formations in the pelvis, enlarged lymph nodes, dilation of the rectal veins and posterior deviation of the uterus, together with the mobility of the uterus, are also causes of overflow of the pelvic venous vessels.
Impaired hemodynamics of the internal genital organs (impaired outflow from the uterus, microcirculation of the mixed type “spasm-stagnation”, which leads to changes in tissue trophism, the development of chronic hypoxia and acidosis). Tissue ischemia leads to the release of serotonin, histamine, acetylcholine, prostaglandins, and bradykinin. Prostaglandins in large quantities suppress the activity of progesterone (seesaw principle). According to this theory, elevated progesterone levels inhibit lipolysis and prostaglandin synthesis, and prostaglandins block the synthesis and biological effects of progesterone. Thus, a reduced level of progesterone causes an increased concentration of prostaglandins, and vice versa. This in turn leads to
- Disturbance of local hormonal homeostasis;
- Psychosomatic influences (patients with chronic pelvic pain develop psychological changes that maintain or increase pain experience regardless of the degree of physical injury or illness);
- Specific pathology of the genitals (according to the University of Rochester Gynecology Center for Pelvic Pain, the most common diagnoses for chronic pelvic pain are endometriosis (33%), interstitial cystitis (28%), irritable bowel syndrome (25%) and myofascial abdominal pain and /or pelvis (29%) – 71% of patients are diagnosed with 2 or more diseases).
Psychosomatics of hand diseases
Hands are responsible for execution and retention. Physical problems with joints begin with fear of loss, fear of new things, when a person “gives up.” Also, the upper limbs are a symbol of relationships with others. They originate in the chest and are closely related to the senses. Another reason for pain is the inability to give or give (a person takes more than he gives).
Wrist joint and fingers
The hand and fingers are a zone of energy redistribution in different directions. This is where the projections responsible for the systems and organs of the whole body are located. Different theories give different interpretations of connections. Therefore, pain can be associated both with family problems and with physical internal diseases.
Elbow joint
Represents power, the ability to push through a crowd, clear the way to success and wealth. If the desire to earn money becomes more important than the meaning of life, the joints refuse to work normally. They urge you to stop and not go ahead.
Shoulder joint
This is the “hug joint.” Pain here is an area of responsibility, a burden. Unexpressed grievances and hidden disappointments, the bitterness of losses, the fear of seeming pitiful - all this triggers a destructive process. Jaw and maxillofacial joint This part of the body is subject to intense psychological stress in any stressful situation: the mouth clenches tightly, leading to grinding of teeth. Clenching the jaws is a symbol of strong-willed qualities. For secretive, powerful, proud people, this process becomes decisive. The result of constant strong squeezing is pain in the neck, jaw clicking and problems with swallowing (a characteristic crunch appears).

Theories of famous psychologists
Author | Theses, opinions |
Sinelnikov | Neuralgia is typical for patients with increased conscientiousness and hypertrophied responsibility. Neuralgia is self-punishment for sins that are usually far-fetched. |
Liz Burbo | If a person constantly replays negative emotions and fears in his memory, then physical pain will appear very quickly. Pain is the road to cleansing from emotional experiences. The mother's worldview can be passed on to the child. Excessive adherence to principles and inability to give in are a possible cause of dysplasia. |
Zhikarentsev | The causes of pathologies are fear and anxiety that a person will not be accepted or accepted into society. |
Torsunov | The condition of the joints reflects the following qualities.
|
The following emotions are especially dangerous:
- internal irritation;
- chronic resentment towards others, loved ones or the whole world;
- discontent.
When a person feels these emotions, he experiences a spasm of the anterior thigh, which accompanies gonarthrosis in 100% of cases. At first, the spasm does not make itself felt, but then it “tightens” the knees and prevents their free movement. As a result, either a rupture of the meniscus or deformation of the cartilage occurs.
Knees often bother people who are prone to criticism, self-criticism and dissatisfaction.
Recommendations for recovery
If the problem with the joints is caused by psychosomatics, you will need to consult a psychotherapist, orthopedist, or rheumatologist. Medical therapy, gymnastics and adjustment of thinking are required. The help of a psychotherapist will be decisive. Working with a specialist will help you reconsider your attitude towards life, realize deep hidden problems, and reassess the past. The main goal is to get rid of old wounds, calmly accept the experience and let go of the situation. Positive thinking is a decisive measure of protection against psychosomatic problems. It is important to develop the attitude “to go forward easily” so that the movement becomes painless and the limbs are healthy.
