Joint pain are extremely unpleasant for those who have them. But in addition to the unpleasant fact of having to endure joint pain, those affected suffer far more than that: their range of motion is restricted, social encounters decrease, their muscles become weaker, their psyche suffers - all of this can lead to frustration, or even worse: stagnation.
Have you ever wondered what other effects painful joints cause? For many people, it is already a daily occurrence that every movement hurts. 10 million Germans suffer from joint pain. Acute or severe pain should initially be treated with rest, although rest is not a long-term solution. But what happens when every day is a day with joint pain? If we spend most of the day in our homes, not doing anything, we miss out on some of the beautiful moments in life.
"In fact, we have to assume that only 15 percent of the German population gets enough exercise - the rest are continually progressing towards major medical problems." Prof. Wessinghage underlines this statement in the podcast interview with Medicom.
