Wintergreen Essential
essential oils what worked for you for arthritis?
My father suffered with severe arthritis, he waited for hip replacement surgery. I have find information on essential oils for arthritis and have found tons of information and different combinations. so I want to know what essential oils work for you? I just ordered him to try some of wintergreen. all of your suggestions are appreciated.
You do not say what he had arthritis. Answer I assume that he has osteoarthritis, the most common type. I do not think the "important" oil will work. He can rub on anything and to drink any potions but the reality is that the hip joint cartilage layers are destroyed and he does not eat, drink or apply to change that. Bone rubbing on bone. If he takes a temporary relieved her doctor agreed to give steroid injections to the joints that can help temporarily. They are not a permanent fix but they can provide some relief. Also, if he did not already, he should use some type of walking aid to take pressure off the affected joint - a cane, walker, whatever works best for him. Make sure he uses a stick in hand on the opposite side of a bad hip. Also, if he has not, he could try to NSAIDs (non-steroidals). I have severe OA in both hips replaced and now have both. It is a permament fix it. Good luck to him. How long it will wait for surgery?.
