Keeping Active
hogan scarpe uomo
hogan 2012 scarpe donna When You’re In PainIn January of 1995, I woke up one night and my left foot
hogan Hogan Elective donna was paralyzed. I was in excruciating pain. 24 hours later, the episode had passed almost as if it
hogan scarpe uomo had never happened.
For another year, I went from doctor to
hogan hogan outlet doctor.
hogan scarpe uomo I
hogan 2013 scarpe uomo had five different diagnoses. I was fitted with orthotics and special braces.
hogan Hogan Olympia I took an MRI. I
hogan interactive scarpe uomo took blood tests. I bought special shoes. And, I kept having episodes like the first one. Then it started to happen in my right foot. Doctors kept looking
hogan 2013 scarpe donna at
hogan 2012 Scarpe uomo
hogan scarpe donna my feet, but they couldnt figure out what was going on. I was told to live with it.
Then an
hogan interactive scarpe donna orthopedic
hogan scarpe donna surgeon agreed
hogan 2013 scarpe uomo
hogan interactive outlet to see me.
hogan scarpe donna He was with
hogan 2011 scarpe donna me five minutes when he noticed that my feet were really hot. I didn’t realize it at the time, but I was experiencing flares. At 31 years old, I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthrits and ankylosing spondylitis.
It’s tough to keep active when you’re in pain. It hurts to move, so why bother? If you suffer from arthritis or another similar disease, did you know that not moving can cause you as much pain as moving? I learned
hogan 2011 scarpe donna the hard way. This is the story of how I got myself moving again.
My Living HellI was sent to a rheumatolgist, a doctor who specialized in these types of disease. I followed his instructions. I rested and I stopped moving. He told me there wasn’t anything I could do. Again, I would just have to live with it.
My world shrank. I flared at least once a month. I hobbled around on crutches during the worst of it. I could no longer walk to the BART trainwhich took me to and from work. I couldn’t take my nieces and nephews to the park. I couldn’t walk to the shopping mall. I couldn’t even walk to the corner without pain radiating up through the soles of my feet. I was sore and I was tired. I went to work, I came home, I ate dinner, and I nodded off at 7pm. This was so not me! I’m a night owl. But, my body was plum tired.
I sat around most of the time. The less I did the less I was able to do. I began envisioning myself in a wheel chairat 40 years old in a wheel chair. It scared me to death.
There are easy ways to exerciseI know. It’s not easy getting those creaky joints moving again. Exercise, at first, can be more painful than the disease. The Arthritis Foundation puts out some excellent DVDs that show you how easy it is to exercise. They are designed
hogan interactive scarpe uomo so that you can
hogan 2011 scarpe donna follow them even if you have to sit down to do the exercises.
These DVDs are made especially for people who have trouble moving. You will see that
hogan Hogan Elective donna they include people with different levels of ability even those
hogan Hogan Elective donna who must sit to exercise. I found the guidance in this video helpful and encouraging. It’s so easy to lose one’s motivation especially
hogan scarpe uomo when it hurts to move.
The Stress Free Exercise DVD is a great place to start. It offers easy, step by step instructions for gentle exercise no matter your abilities. The Tai Chi for Arthritis DVD is another good one, though I recommend this after you’ve exercised for a
hogan interactive outlet bit. It does have the same concept of different levels for different abilities, but you do need a bit of coordination to start with.
It may be painful to exercise. It’s a lot more more painful to not exercise.
Ask Your Physician First
If you have any questions or worries about starting an exercise regimen, consult your doctor. Most people can start a simple exercise plan, but individual limitations may need to be considered before you get moving.
Once you have clearance, start slow. If all you can do is 5 minutes, that’s a great start!
Getting Back On My FeetA couple months after my "live with it" treatment, I said "To heck with this!" (Okay, I may have used stronger language.) I got an appointment with another rheumatologist.
This guy had a whole different perspective on joint pain. When I told him my fears about becoming wheelchair bound, he
hogan 2013 scarpe donna listened. When I asked him if there was anything I could do, he said "Absolutely!"
He signed me up for several weeks of physical therapy. I went through two sessions a week where I learned simple exercises so that I could get my range of motion back. I had exercises to do at home. If you’ve ever gone to physical therapy, you know that it only gets worse before it gets better.
I worked with a balance board, moved my feet in rice and then beans. I worked with exercise bands. I eventually worked up to using the exercise bike.
A friend sent me some hot pepper lotion which helped keep the inflammation in my feet down. Then, a co worker gave me a tube of Biofreeze, which got rid of the soreness in my neck and shoulders. I also learned about contrast baths and using ice packs.
I had a long road ahead of me. But, I was moving again even if it was very slowly!
A Plan of ActionOne day around my birthday, I noticed I was thinking about my disability in different terms.
hogan interactive scarpe donna Instead of despairing over what I had lost, I was telling myself that this may be the best it
hogan scarpe donna will be. What was I going to do about it? I put the challenge out there.
I made the decision to live whatever life I could with arthritis. It meant giving up something things and
hogan scarpe uomo figuring out how to do somethings differently. It meant accepting that the affects of arthritis would always be with
hogan interactive outlet me.
So, I set myself up a plan. I started daily range of motion exercises to keep my joints moving. You may
hogan interactive scarpe donna not realize that your joints have synovial fluid in them. If you don’t move around, this fluid freezes up causing stiff joints that eventually freeze up.
I also started by walking in the backyard. Close enough that if I hurt myself I could get back in the house. It wasn’t much, but eventually I could do two 10 minute session. My theory is some exercise is better than none at all.
I followed my plan every day. After many months, the muscle cramps in my feet came as lesser intervals.
hogan 2013 scarpe donna My fingers stopped flaring on a daily basis. My head seemed clearer because I was getting some fresh air.
One day at work, I was sitting in my chair and I noticed that I never put my feet flat on the ground. Ever. When I tried, it hurt like crazy.
I went back to the physical therapist with this information. She ran me through some exercises which confirmed what I suspected. My muscles and tendons had shortened. While I was
hogan interactive scarpe uomo trying to stop myself from feeling pain by resting, I was inflicting more harm on my
hogan interactive outlet body by weakening it!
I learned an important lesson that day. The pain from not moving can be just as bad as the pain from moving! I had to make a decision on which way I wanted it. I could have pain and rest or pain and
hogan Hogan Olympia movement. Eventually, I chose the latter.
