What osteoarthritis feels like?

Have you ever been mistaken for a creaky door because of the sound your joints make when you move? Or maybe, you’ve had to turn down an invite to dance because you’re afraid of what might happen if the beat became too intense.

If that’s the case, then it is possible that your symptoms are related to osteoarthritis. In this article, we’re going to take a closer look at what osteoarthritis feels like using funny and relatable language.

The Beginning

Before we get started, let’s define osteoarthritis. It’s not just any type of arthritis – it’s a specific kind. Osteo indicates bone, so in particular it involves damage done right on top of where bones meet or rub (that’d be joint moving against joint). This leads do things growing hard around there & unfortunately means getting worse over time….which can certainly throw one through some loops!

Most beginning points can start with being completely unaware; sometimes people don’t realize something is wrong quite yet until they experience their first shaking episode. This often happens when standing up from sitting or kneeling or even taking just really short walks (small chuckle).

The nap life may become real popular during those times due to muscle weakness building up tied into movement restrictions happening oh-so-slowly – unless rushed by stairs without warning!

Joint Pain

Joint pain caused by OA (for short) can vary based on how much cartilage has been damaged already and which spot(s) have been affected thus far which will also determine which relief methods apply more quickly than others BUT most commonly noticed in weight-bearing areas – think hips & knees amongst other places-2-be. Thank god OA does eventually cause extra bone growth around said nerves but only as another complication…cuz relaxing sarcasm

However if persons should luck out, they may go on to feel relief with the help of painkillers, aerobic exercise (you can still sweat while keeping feet planted), heat packs or other modalities your doctor suggests.

Stiffness

If joint stiffness has also become a routine thing you’re used to , it might resemble something that feels like breaking up ice during winter season- which hopefully this look might put in mind for you slowly moving people wide grin.

This stiffness normally happens after long periods of not having moved at all! A rainy day is usually an excellent day for your joints – perhaps when makes feeling doing some light movements that make persons feel less “rice krispy”. Use high-five emojis here because who doesn’t want their own cute hugsman companion?

Hmm, let’s take notes from comedy right now and do some audience participation stuff; ever felt like an old lady trapped in young lady’s body getting into just about everything with those stubborn jars and sneaking a few laugh lines around similar moments?

Better yet…ever hurt yourself trying harder than needed to open any object…calling someone else over cuz imagined scenario involving shattered glass pieces every where seems more possible than just unscrewing particularly tight & dicey lid?? That’s certainly one way OA could be playing games alongside your life.

The Crackles And Pops

You know how sometimes funny noises have come outta nowhere while siting down (“crackle pop” yup)? Although often referred to as music 🎶 by many, these ‘moments’ are sadly likely going back to (supervised) medical attention. These sounds are part cartilage rubbing against bone since there isn’t quite as much separation between them anymore /excites nervously/ – its easier hearing instead of feeeling personally responsible….figure everybody needs inspiration sometimes haha!

However if things start making grinding noises frequently then person very well,might need reconsider commitment to catching kids up being bestest “tag” player…or maybe not silly nod….but certainly worth taking a trip to the doctor about.

Loss Of Mobility

Loss of mobility; imagine your body is needing frequent reminders now it’s abilities all while stiff legs resembling tree trunks and hands jutting out at odd angles making persons feel like trying on T-Rex costume just for fun if possibilities didn’t scare you enough!! Humorous nods aside, even mundane tasks can swiftly turn into nightmares. There are those moments where thoughts become things – “I am capable of more than this my dear friends”. But that desire remains but the action becomes a bit fuzzy. It definitely doesn’t help when normal activities start resulting in feeling sore & fatigued later….just one heckin’ great reminder every time you get back up again!

Just know with the right methods applied regularly (like taking breaks frequently / stretching), accomplishments become milestones instead frustrating unreachable goals  

Final Thoughts

In conclusion, osteoarthritis can be debilitating and have an impact on multiple aspects of your life including movement, pain level among others…hm maybe should’ve mentioned symptom beginnings; will do better next time! The good news is that there are ways to alleviate some symptoms! Though whether serious or comedic – would still show these tricks could prove significant through new aid each day 😊 Think relief strategies amongst other recommendations .

It might seem scary during early stages but knowing what signs look like as well as keeping habits healthy #lifehacks means coming away from process without bumps/bangs incurred due misunderstandings around one’s own situational factors shouldering themselves onto already compromised plates. Know how helpful simple messages communicating alongside light humor have been!–next time let’s focus on available solutions earlier so everybody benefits 😉
