Scientists Discover Strange Link Between Vitamin D and Pain

Quote: Low vitamin D levels could be quietly making breast cancer surgery recovery far more painful. In a new study, patients deficient in vitamin D were three times more likely to experience moderate to severe pain after mastectomy surgery and ended up using significantly more opioid medication to cope. Researchers say vitamin D may help regulate how the body processes pain

Scientists Discover Simple Way to Relieve Arthritis Pain Without Pills or Surgery

Quote: In the yearlong randomized controlled trial, people with knee osteoarthritis were trained to make a small, personalized change in the angle of their foot while walking. The result was striking. Participants who received the real gait retraining reported pain relief comparable to medication, and MRI scans suggested they had less knee cartilage deterioration than people in the placebo group....

But there is a key challenge: the best walking adjustment is not the same for everyone. Some people reduce knee loading by turning their toes slightly inward. Others benefit more from pointing them outward. For some, the wrong change can fail to help or even increase stress on the painful part of the knee.

Comment: Outward is what my podiatrist favored many decades ago. Dr. Cathcart suggested this is more prevalent when the body is being stressed by lack of adequate antioxidants, often caused by either poor diet or hidden allergies. But he too, spoke of walking right. My knees healed two weeks after I moved out of a damp, ocean side environment.

Popular Weight Loss Drugs Like Wegovy May Also Target Arthritis Inflammation

Quote: Researchers have discovered that the GLP-1 hormone targeted by drugs like Wegovy is present in very low amounts inside the joints of arthritis patients. That finding suggests high-dose GLP-1 medications could potentially reach the joints and influence inflammation directly, not just help through weight loss. Scientists say this could open the door to a completely new approach to arthritis treatment. ,,, The researchers caution that patients should not expect GLP-1 drugs to become arthritis treatments anytime soon. Much more research is needed before doctors can determine whether these medications can actually reduce inflammation or relieve symptoms inside the joints.
