Yeah, I was surprised when I learned that alcohol can make the pain worse because I always thought that alcohol makes pain relief. However, a friend of mine who is a doctor explained to me that alcohol causes dehydration and that makes the joint pain much worse. After that, I asked her then what is she suggesting to those that have joint pain and she told me about a remedy for sciatica that works like a painkiller so that I can take it when my back, joints, and muscles hurt. Now this drug is always in my medicine box.

Whether you walk every day, you’re a keen cyclist, or passionate about running, we all know how important it is to get outside in the open air, especially during lockdown. But if you suffer from joint pain it can be hard to motivate yourself to stay active. With this in mind, ]] would like to hear your tips for managing joint pain, particularly during winter.
Here’s what ]] has to say:
"GOPO® Joint Health is committed to helping the Nation feel limber at any age, and encourages a healthy and active lifestyle all year round.
