What is it?What is the difference?
There is an arthrosis disease, but there is arthritis.Their names are very similar, these diseases affect the same organs: the joints, but the basis of these disorders is still different.What is the difference?
What is arthrosis
One of the main characteristics of this disease is the injury of the cartilage tissue in the joint.With any arthrosis, there is painful pain in the area of the articulation concerned, a swelling may appear.
At the same time, the cartilage ceases to cope with the load that is on it and begins to collapse more than what can recover.
Consequently, the cartilage layer between the bones, which provides normal scrolling of the joint surfaces of the bones, does not face its function, begins to collapse and all the movements are accompanied by pain.
What is arthritis
This is a chronic inflammatory process in the joints.Arthritis is caused by serious disturbances in the nutrition of the joint.Often accompanied by the swelling of the sick area.
The symptoms of arthritis and arthrosis have a significant difference.
Arthosis does not have in its symptoms of "volatility".In a nutshell, the inflammation that occurred in an articulation is extremely transformed into another articulation, leaving the first one alone.
With arthritis - a "flying" character can be traced.
The difference between arthritis and arthrosis is in the nature of pain.
With arthritis, the pain attends itself when a person moves actively, with the exception of morning pain.
With arthrosis, rigidity in the morning passes in a short period of time, while the articular "cries" moves.
Non -steroid anti -inflammatory drugs used in the treatment of arthritis can eliminate pain only for a while.Arthritis can stop showing itself, but then attacking with renewed vigor.
With arthrosis, they can become the reasons why joint cartilage begins to collapse, metabolic disorders, excess weight and a decrease in the blood flow of the joint.
However, the most common cause is not the standard load on the joints.
In body -oriented therapy, somatic massage techniques are used, which relieves tension in the muscles and joints that transport a double load due to a painful articulation.
The balancing of muscle compounds is carried out, which assume the function of the defender.They must help release the tension, relax.
The soft manual technique of relaxing connective tissues near the joint contributes to the increase in blood flow and the supply of oxygen.The articulation "begins to breathe".
The stimulation technique manually, the "awakening" of the start of the muscles attached to the back, along the spine, has a beneficial effect on the lymphatic system.The lymph works like a drainage system, purifying the body of toxins and removing large particles suspended between the tissue space, as well as providing hormones, proteins and lymphocytes to all cells.
There is an opportunity to feel better, free yourself from the tension, find contacts with your body.
And of course, this is just a part of the path.
Turning to psychosomatic, you can find the reasons for the development of adverse changes in the joints ... this will undoubtedly accelerate the recovery process.
