Rheumatoid arthritis exercise, regular exercise like this will heal faster

For people with rheumatoid arthritis, if they want to improve their physical condition, they can achieve this goal through exercise. The following article will introduce to you the exercise methods suitable for rheumatoid arthritis patients.

(1) Joint stretching exercises:

Do joint stretching exercises as much as possible without causing pain or exacerbating the pain. Gradually increase the range of motion and do not rush for results. This is mainly to maintain the function of the joints.

(2) Isometric muscle contraction (static exercise):

The inactivity of the joints causes the muscles to contract, but the length of the muscle fibers is inconvenient. This is what we call "stretching". This type of exercise is suitable for patients with severe joint swelling. Through such exercise, the stability of the joints can be increased, and the patient's weight-bearing, lifting and supporting strength can be increased;

(3) Endurance training:

When the patient is in better condition, more vigorous exercise is needed, such as walking, cycling, or even jogging. Of course, these must be gradually increased. These three types of exercise should not be biased, and time should be allocated reasonably.
