My grandfather is suffering from osteoarthritis and i can see that he is in so much pain. Does anybody here know of some home treatments that can possibly help him ease the pain. I feel so sad looking at him like this..

Thank you so much.

hello tuba
there are a few home remedies that you can try to ease his condition

include fish oil in his daily diet. this healthy food supplement s a natural anti-inflammatory pain reliever, so try and give him cold water omega 3 fish, like salmon.
Low impact exercise, like walking, swimming or yoga, are also good ways to strengthen bones, joints and muscles, improve flexibility and reduce depression.
eliminate red meat from his diet as it has been known to increase arthritic pain. include healthy foods like whole grains, colorful fruits and vegetables .

hope he gets better.

Hello Tuba,
You could try alternative treatments. I took my granpa to India for Ayurvedic treatment, though it does not get rid of the disease, it certainly helps. They have certain formulations that have to be applied to the skin around the painful joints and surrounding areas, then mild massage and heat has to be applied, and then it is all washed away in warm water. Though quite tedious to do every day, it gives him relief, and he is much more comfortable now.

Osteoarthritis is indeed a sad ailment and it is something a person has to learn to live with. Such ailments should be prevented as curing is not an easy option. I would advice - hot water fomentation every day and mild exercising to loosen the ligaments around the bone joints. Please ask him to avoid rigorous exercises. If it is too painful ask him to take painkillers.
