🍂 As the temperatures drop, many people—especially those with arthritis or past injuries—tend to feel the chill in their joints. ❄️ Barometric pressure shifts and cold weather can lead to increased stiffness and discomfort. So what can you do to manage the pain?
In honor of Physician Assistant Month, we asked our Concord PAs for their top tips for cold weather joint pain management:
🔸"Keep moving with low-impact exercises like walking and yoga to keep those joints active." –Kendall Holroyd, PA-C
🔸"Start your day with daily stretching and warm water soaks to ease stiffness." –Jessica Flanigan, PA-C
🔸"Dress in layers and grab those hand warmers to stay cozy and combat cold-related joint pain." –Scot Rheinecker, PA-C
These tips are just the tip of the iceberg as it pertains to orthopedic advice. Don’t let the cold hold you back this season! For personalized bone and joint advice, schedule an appointment with our expert PAs and keep your joints happy!
