Subacute osteoarthritis— no denial here
People who are in the subacute stage of osteoarthritis are very much aware they have a problem with their joints. Often times, this stage is characterized by localized joint pain. Some people may feel extreme pain and stiffness in their fingers and hands, but their other joints function properly and painlessly. Still others, depending upon their age and lifestyle, may feel the symptoms in their shoulders or knees, but their fingers and hands feel fine.
The thing to remember about subacute osteoarthritis is that it’s not too late. At this stage, localized pain and stiffness can not only be relieved, but it can also be reversed. Like acute osteoarthritis, Devil’s Claw extract can provide pain relief. Other natural substances like glucosamine, boswellia, and curcumin can be useful in this stage to arrest the progression of the disease and reverse the damage.
