Hand massage for arthritis

I have a set of differing resistance gel eggs which I find helpful, from Amazon. I sometimes carry them with me when out for a walk to make sure I find time to do the exercises which came with them. There are specific You Tube videos to help too.
I hope you find some relief.

I’ve heard that those hot wax things that you can soak your hands in are good. I was given several exercises to do by the hospital ( note to self, start doing them again). Keep my hands warm. Wear protective gloves for gardening etc. and cycling gloves at the gym (or used to when I used to go).Take turmeric. Put E45 on my hands at night cause I think VitE is good. I sleep with a hot water bottle that I keep my hand on.

Thanks both. Just started Turmeric. I will check out the gel eggs. ?

I have found Holland &Barrett’s CBD muscle balm gives me enough relief from my sore thumbs to start knitting again. I rub it in while I am watching the telly.

I don't know whether you take blood pressure medication, but turmeric can lower the BP, which may need monitoring if taken in conjunction.

If possible, always buy the fresh turmeric root.

I’ll check out my BP ShySal as I do take BP tablets.

I’m not into cooking Meryl so I’m afraid it will be the tablets, but thanks anyway.

Parsley I will get the muscle balm ?

I’ve found online YouTube an excellent 5 minute hand massage and my fingers are moving better.

I use one of these hand heaters www.neu-planet.com
My hands were beginning to show signs of arthritis, pain in the joints and swelling. I used the massager regularly in the evening for 15 minutes a hand while watching football on the tv! Improvement was almost immediate and had been sustained (5 months later)

I started hand massage twice a day after reading original post. What a difference! Who knew? And it means I am also taking TIME to put my handcream on properly..so improved mobility, pain relief and appearence.
Thank you!

I massage in cannabis ointment which I find does help.
