Rheumatoid Arthritis Tip

Good Morning All

I have RA which is quite severe in my hands and wrists.

I have recently purchased two blue stress balls from eBay which were really cheap.

I have been squeezing the stress balls ten times, three times a day and thought that I would share my experience with you as it really is starting to help regain strength and to help to stretch my ligaments and tendons.

Sounds a good idea. Fortunately my hands aren't too bad at the moment, but I'd certainly use something if they were. I've had good improvements using things for hips, knees and spine. Important to try and increase muscle strength.

I would like to regain muscle strength too , but interested in what you did for your spine?

A lot of exercises. I did have a guided steroid shot over a year ago which helped considerably in getting me back into exercising. Swimming, light exercise on rebounder and walking. It's not a quick fix. It has taken some time.
