Walking on rheumatoid feet is an indescribable, painful experience for those suffering from the disease. According to licensed chiropractor Tom Gehrmann, the prevention and cure for rheumatoid disease should be given priority.
Rheumatoid is another form of arthritis and causes pain to the person experiencing it. It is a severe inflammatory pain that lasts for a long time. The pain normally comes from the joints of the person suffering from this disease. Rheumatoid is an example of an autoimmune disease that fights the body's tissues. A person experiencing rheumatoid in the joints of a foot will feel that the foot is swollen. Furthermore, it feels painful to walk on that foot. This limits the patient's locomotive movements.
Researchers are still trying to find ways of alleviating rheumatoid pains and preventive measures to take to prevent rheumatoid. Some research supports medical care, while some supports using chiropractic methods to alleviate rheumatoid pains.
This is why Thomas Gehrmann used his decades of experience to tell us how to treat rheumatoid feet.
However, let's first talk about how to identify if the pain you are feeling in your feet is rheumatoid pain.
How to Identify Rheumatoid Pain
Your feet have several joints, tissues, and bones. Any of these can be subjected to rheumatoid pain because your immune system can attack them. When this happens, your feet will cause you pain.
You may be experiencing starting symptoms like:
- Swollen feet
- The skin of your feet will turn red
- The skin of your feet feels warm when you touch it.
- You have difficulty walking around.
- You are unable to stand for a long time.
- You feel pain in your feet when you move about.
After a while, the disease becomes more severe. Then your feet will start to deform. You will experience symptoms like:
- Bunions: This is when the first toes of both feet shift in the direction of the second toes of both feet. Two painful bumps will form at the bottom of the first toes. The bumps are scientifically known as bunions.
- Flat arch: Rheumatoid damages your feet's ligaments. When the disease becomes severe, you won't be able to stand firmly with your feet. The arch of your feet will collapse and flattens. Then foot deformation occurs.
- Claw Toes: This is also an example of foot deformation. The little joints of the second, third, fourth, and fourth toes bend to form claws. A person experiencing claw feet finds it difficult to stand on both feet.
- Both feet will tingle due to damage to the nerves.
- It can cut off blood flow to the feet by damaging the blood vessels. When this occurs, your feet feel as if they are sleeping.
Things that trigger Rheumatoid:
- Inadequate sleep/rest
- Sickness
- When you are stressed
- Overworking to the point where you are exhausted
- Infections
- Incorrect intake of drugs/medications
