Psoriasis Music
Wtf is her fukin problem?!?
Okay, my cousin Amanda came over with her boyfriend, Slade. So, we start talking and joke around about teenage junk like music and stuff. My dad comes to the house, politely says hello, and starts getting his stuff out of the house. ( my parents divorced 2 weeks ago and he moved out 2 months ago) I go out and help him put some junk in his Ford and I walk back to my room and ask my cousin what her and Slade are laughing about. Slade says my dad needs some serious lotion and that he looks like a freak because my dad has cracked hands(due to working 7 days a week in an oilfield) and psoriasis on his elbows and knees. I get into a small argument with him and tell him to get the fuck out. Well, Amanda pops in with her sassy personality and we get into a cuss out. She slaps me, so push her into the wall, and I landed a few shots on her face. She starts whining and shit, and says I have fuckin problems. Was I out of line? I'm seriously about to fuckin bust out! Thank God mom is gone.
Your cousin was ignorant.!!! and you are a decent person to stick up for your dad. Your dad seems to be a hard worker. and a decent man. And your cousin needs a dose of reality and needs to grow up. No you werent out of line. Making fun of a hard working person with a health problem was the out of line thing. Perhaps one day she'll get psoriasis ( I hope so ) and she'll see what your dad is going through, and then feel guilty for what she did later in life. I hope that slade person gets it too.. You just keep on loving your dad! and your mom too. they love you. even though they no longer love each other. their love for you will never go away
Treating Rheumatoid Arthritis Of The Spine
For those suffering from arthritis in the spine, palindromic arthritis, viral arthritis, and/or cervical arthritis, coping techniques are simply not the answer. Lumbar arthritis, shoulder arthritis, viral arthritis, and/or psoriasis arthritis sufferers, for example, desire permanent arthritis pain relief, arthritis treatment, new arthritis medication, and/or effective arthritis drugs.
What is shoulder arthritis, arthritis rheumatism, neck arthritis, infectious arthritis, and/or psoriatic arthritis pain? Foot arthritis pain, back arthritis pain, rheumatic arthritis pain, knee arthritis pain and other pains mean something is wrong in your body. Signs and symptoms of arthritis, signs of arthritis, or arthritis pain may begin as morning stiffness. And for millions of us, arthritis can become a crippling disease.
Alternative Treatments For Arthritis
Many arthritis sufferers have tried unusual and rather nasty 'cures' for their disease like enduring bee-stings or covering themselves in cow-manure. The benefits must have been rather less spectacular than the cures or else everyone else would have done the same.
One arthritis cure suggests that half a glass of raw potato juice followed by chewing two or three juniper berries will do the trick! While this may be so, many doctors and scientists researching arthritis have studied the benefits of taking nutritional substances like vitamins. In fact, studies have shown that people with arthritis are mostly deficient in the B group of vitamins, though whether this is due to the disease, or to the fact that taking aspirin depletes the bodies stores of this vitamin is not clear.
Vitamin C, E and beta-carotenes are powerful antioxidants that help to neutralize free radicals. These oxygen-reactive free radical molecules are thought to contribute significantly to disease and tissue damage. It has been found that cells from damaged knee cartilage can release great amounts of free radicals. In fact, studies have shown that those who have a high Vitamin C intake have a two-thirds reduction in the risk of further damage to their knees. Well-known scientist Dr. Linus Pauling recommends 18 grams of V-C per day as an arthritis preventative measure.
Osteoarthritis can cause thinning of the bones, and so can prednisone, often given to treat it. It makes sense then to increase the amount of Vitamin D and calcium, both of which are bone-builders. As far back as 1974, British scientists found that lack of vitamin D contributed to bone fractures in the elderly with arthritis. Lack of sunlight and an unhealthy diet both contributed to the lack. The recommended daily dose of Vitamin D is 400 IU or 600 IU if for those over the age of 60. A daily dose of 1200 IU is the limit as this vitamin is toxic if too much is taken.
Vitamin E is also an antioxidant, working in a similar way to vitamin C. Studies in Germany have proven that it can help to reduce pain. Good sources of this vitamin can be found in wheat germ, sunflower seed, corn oil, legumes and whole grains.
While some people swear by the arthritis cure that their copper bracelet brought, there is no scientific link to copper as being an aid to arthritis. In fact the opposite is true. Those with RA often have higher levels of copper in their blood. Too much copper can make you sick.
Selenium deficiency can cause a particular type of arthritis called Kashin-Bek disease, but it is more common where the soil is deficient in selenium, though sufferers of RA have less in their blood than others. Fish, organ meats, whole grains, nuts and beans will provide selenium.
Zinc may help reduce pain, stiffness and swelling. Some trials showed this was true, though others gave conflicting results. Oysters, cheese and tofu are all good sources of zinc.
The pain of arthritis can also be relieved by hot-packs, deliberately focussing on something else like pleasant music, humor, gentle exercise and losing weight.
