Answers:
try mobic 15mg it the arthotec isnt working
Just load up on the ibuprofen, it always works for me when I am having finger joint pain. Also cranberry juice always seemed to help me, maybe it will help you.
Try Naproxen 500
The Romans used to brush nettles over the affected area.
I have never heard of this particular pain reliever. Have you tried something like Aleve (naproxen sodium) or plain old Tylenol (acetaminophen). Sometimes it is the most common medications that can do the most good. Tylenol even makes a specific product for arthritis, called Tylenol Arthritis. If you are able to talk with your doctor about switching medications for your arthritis (which you should do anyway) you may want to ask him about prescribing Celebrex (celecoxib). It works very well for pain.
Just found out that I do not have arthritis, after years of being told by Dr's (without taking x-rays) that they were sure the pain was arthritic (osteo). Get checked out, there are many minor (and easily treatable) and serious (some easy to treat some not) diseases that have joint pain as a symptom (some of the more serious ones can be life-threatening if not treated). Take care and hope you get rid of the pain soon.
try taking glucosamine with devil's claw also codliver oil capsules good luck
Haven't heard of that med. Tylenol is likely best OTC, doesn't help with my RA. You should see a Dr. May not be arthritis. Taking glucosamin with MSN will help and a good omega 3.
Chondroitin Sulfate and Glucosmine are very effective. It takes some time to build up.
You might refer to this site http://www.maxgxl.com/p4fitness... This has been an effective product for me.
Be sure to increase your exercise as adequate exercise seems to improve your joints. I know it is painful but a good exercise program will help in the long run. Low impact or water fitness exercise is very good for you and easy on the joints.
Cranberry juice (unsweetened) is good and so is honey and vinegar water.
Natural remedies. Detoxification and improving circulation are the main aims of natural therapy for arthritis. Essential oils for detoxifying tissue include Cypress oil, Juniper and Lemon - add 6 drops of one of these oils to the surface of the bath water. The oil will then adhere to the skin and absorb into it with the help of the warm water. Black Pepper, Ginger and Marjoram oils can be used to help improve circulation, use one of these oils as instructed above. Rosemary can also be used as this both helps circulation and reduce inflammation.
There is no medicine for almost all painful diseases. Hence they become chronic. Arthritis is the worst of them.
Acidity, excessive wind, cold , heat, sour food and sinusitis, constipation, intestinal inflammation;
Blockage in the flow of Vital Energy are their causes. None of them can be treated with medicine. Our 90% success in treating pains confirms it.
Acupuncture is the best treatment.
If it fails you have another choice of our latest research treating RA with 90% success without medicine.

info that can work along with ---
Muscles like ropes are made of many fibers or strands. If some of the individual fibers that work in combination to make the muscle strong are not relaxing they bulk up in the middle and are stretched thin on the ends which results in the appearance of "knots" they are the tender spots. The muscles that effect headaches can come from as far away as the lower back and include shoulders, arms, neck and head causing a cascade effect. So a massage (professional if possible) will help.
Arms frequently have knots not just in the arm (especially upper) but shoulders, back, and neck. Until you can reach around behind you one arm up and the other down and at least come close to touching your fingers there are probably more knots. To help get the ones under your shoulder blade - keep you elbow down and put your hand on the opposite shoulder while (if you dont have anyone helping) lean into the corner of a building to apply pressure to the knot.
Specific to the leg - run your hand lengthwise down the section of leg that hurts. You will find tender spots these are the knots described above. Apply pressure to this area in a similar motion just over the length of the knot - it will take many sessions of doing this once or twice per session to get the muscle to relax.
Specific to the head - at the base of the skull where it connects to the spine there is a ridge in an upsidedown V like shape - press in and up to the count of three, three times to help relax the muscles there. All through the hair scratch lightly the head you will find tender spots those are knots (rub the rest of the head) the idea is to go over them semi frequently until they are gone.
General - Muscles need magnisium (regulates many things) and potassium - both can be found in bananas or molasses (a swig or two)
Hydrate with any nonsugar (even the substitutes) liquids - quantity = your body weight divided by 2 times ounces daily. The head of neurology (10 years ago) at UCDavis told my husband that running a body low on water is like running a car low on oil - there will be problems.
Reference - The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook by Davies teaches about muscles and how to help them yourself.
