Patients of the rheumatism arthritis tend to suffer from morning stagnating symptoms of rigid joints and restricted activity that affect not only day-to-day activities but also, to some extent, the quality of life. However, there are a number of effective ways to help patients to ease their early-morning stalemate and discomfort.
I. Drug treatment is the foundational and reasonable drug treatment is essential to control rheumatism and to mitigate morning rigidity. Patients should strictly follow the prescriptions of doctors for anti-regulatory drugs, such as ammonium butterflies and fluoromedicines, which can fundamentally regulate the immune system and contain arthritis, thus reducing the frequency and severity of morning rigidities. Biological agents, such as tumour necrosis inhibitors, are a good option for patients with more severe conditions or with poor reaction to traditional DMARDs, which can reduce inflammation response quickly and effectively and significantly the symptoms of morning rigidity. In addition, the appropriate use of non-paralytic anti-inflammation drugs (NSAIDs), such as Broven and Sodium bichlorfonate, in the event of pain and morbid onset in the morning, can quickly reduce joint pain and inflammation and improve joint activity, but with attention to adverse reactions such as gastrointestinal tracts to avoid long-term intensive use.
Second, the morning event happens, and when you get up in the morning, don’t get up in such a hurry. For example, the hands held, the hands loosed and repeated; the wrists worked, stretching and spinning; the knees stretched and the joints were gradually relaxed. These minor activities can facilitate joint blood circulation and help to ease the morning freeze. It then sits slowly and sits by the bed for a moment, allowing the body to adapt and then try to stand and walk. Upon getting up, a number of full-body stretching exercises can be carried out, such as standing up, stretching your hands up, then bending to the side, feeling the spinal and waist stretching; or conducting simple radio gymnastics, with a full-body joint, but with a moderate level of exercise to avoid overwork.
Physiotherapy, which is a common physiotherapy method for reducing morning rigidities. Patients can put hot water bags or hot towels on rigid joints for 15 – 20 minutes each before they get up. They can spread the joints locally, promote blood circulation, reduce muscle spasms, and thus ease the morning paralysis. Hot baths or hot springs can also be used to relax the whole joint in warm water and to make it more effective. In addition, massages and acupunctures have been instrumental in improving joint functions and in reducing morning rigidities. Specialized masseurs massage the muscles around the joints by rubbing, squeezing, rolling and staggering, promoting the circulation of the blood of the muscles and reducing muscle stress; acupuncture, by stimulating a specific lacuna, acts as a means of facilitating communication, reconciling aerobics and swollen. However, massages and acupunctures need to be conducted under professional guidance, with attention to strength and accuracy of the cave.
IV. Living habits need to be adapted and it is important to maintain good living habits in order to ease the deadlock. First, care should be taken to keep the joint warm, especially during cold seasons or air conditioners, and to wear warm clothing, gloves, knee protection, etc. to avoid cooling of the joint. The cold causes a contraction of the arteries around the joints, which exacerbates the symptoms of the morning rigidity. Secondly, to avoid overwork and to maintain the same position for long periods of time, regular rest and exercise joints. For example, when working for long periods of time, the neck, shoulder, wrist, etc. should be up and running at regular intervals; after long periods of standing or walking, the leg should be relaxed by sitting down in a timely manner. Furthermore, a suitable mattress and pillow are selected to ensure the quality of sleep. Good sleep helps to restore body and restore joints and to reduce morning paralysis. Lastly, the cessation of smoking and alcohol consumption, as well as the use of alcohol and alcohol, can affect the effectiveness of the treatment of rheumatism and increase the condition, which in turn exacerbates the morning rigidity.
Patients with rheumatism can effectively mitigate early symptoms, improve comfort and self-care and increase confidence in the fight against disease through a combination of drug treatment, morning exercise, physiotherapy and adaptation of life habits.
