Painfull hands

[ChrispyUK]

I'm 47, similar aches and pains. 2 things - glucosomine - made a massive difference. Secondly - been using a professional massager used by chiropractors called a thumper. Expensive but it's a brute and a game changer.

Hi what brand / dose.younfind effective with the glucosamine please

Get you to the Doc's - there's treatment for arthritis in joints to reduce the swelling/damage. As Smoother says, you cannot reverse it, but you can slow it down and minimise it. Glucosamine needs Vit C to help absorbtion but widely held to help.

This one for past 3 years, it works for me, but I'm sure there are others on here that know more about the best one to take.

Just looked it up on the NHS website as Missus finger joints swelling up - apparently there are at least 2 different types of arthritis, with different treatments, depends on whether its the bones or fluid - so I suggest its the Doc for you.

Agree with glucosamine been taking it for years it’s great for joints ,I have swelling in my finger joints only a few at the moment but I know it’s a down hill path I’m on with them
