1. Does Joint Pain Worsen During Winter? If Yes What Are The Remedies? Suggested by Dr. Rewat Laxman Dr. Rewat Laxman, Bone and Joint Consult, Hip, Knee and Sports specialist, discusses joint pains. What are the conditions which can result in lack of joint care? Suppose, joints are neglected or overworked, then it might tend to early decaying of the articular cartilage which is the surface of the joint. This could often be a hazard of certain kinds of occupations or even sports too. In which joints are these conditions most prevalent? In osteoarthritis, which is the commonest form of arthritis and it particularly affects the joints that bears the weight, hips and knees. Even other joints such as the hand, shoulders, foot and ankle can also be affected. Does exercise help? If yes what kind of exercises? Is it okay to exercise outside in winter or better to do it indoor? Exercise is important on many grades. Firstly, it strengthens the joint surrounded by muscles and thus reduces the load of the joint. Secondly, it helps in maintaining the movement of joints which is often lost as a progress of arthritis and, it also helps all the other joints and this helps to lessen the effects of arthritis in these joints too. Things you should avoid? If your joints are already started to destruct, then ideally high impact activities should be avoided as they can tend to more wear in the joints and cause more discomfort. How can your diet and supplements help to protect your joints? Being overweight can add on strain to joints, in my practice I have that this is affecting the knee joint most generally. I always tell my patients that although it is difficult to reduce weight, the affect on your joints is massive. Is it ever too early or too late to start worrying about joint health? Getting into healthy daily routine like exercise, diet and maintaining a healthy body weight will always benefit joints. Sometimes, joint damage occurs because of our jobs or sports. Is there anything else you can do to protect your joint that’s not been covered above? In case, your job or sports that you play shows a lot of impact on your joints then,  the best advice I would add on to that mentioned is make sure that you stretch, warm up  or make your joints free before starting your activity.
