It's very cold recently, and my mother cries every day to let me wear long pants instead of long pants. Can it really cause arthritis?

Our knee joint is very fragile. Although we can't get rheumatism and arthritis without wearing long pants, if we don't have enough warm-keeping measures, our knee joint is easily affected by cold, because there is relatively little subcutaneous adipose tissue in the knee joint. Whether men or women, if the body has been in a cold environment, it will affect the operation of qi and blood, blood circulation is not smooth, and the face will be very bad.

Cold can lead to contraction of blood vessels around the knee joint and decrease of synovial fluid secretion, which is simply a decrease of local resistance of the joint. Corresponding pathogenic factors can lead to corresponding joint diseases. Therefore, arthritis is frozen, not without scientific reason, but just a fuse. So to sum up, cold is one of the inducing factors of arthritis, just like the last straw to overwhelm the camel. In the treatment of any joint disease, it is very important to protect and keep warm joints. Hot compress can dilate local blood vessels, help drugs reach the lesion and promote local recovery of metabolism.

Osteoarthritis caused by knee joint is mainly the degeneration of articular cartilage caused by some reasons. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that this disease belongs to "arthralgia syndrome". When the human body is attacked by exogenous pathogens such as wind, cold and dampness, the meridians are blocked, and qi and blood are blocked, symptoms such as numbness, soreness, and unfavorable flexion and extension will occur. In other words, the occurrence of old cold legs has the factor that cold evil takes advantage of it. If you don't pay attention to keeping your legs warm in winter, it is easy to cause cold pathogens to take advantage of Chinese medicine.

Because weather changes can lead to joint pain, you can keep your joints warm when you are in pain, and minimize weather changes and temperature changes, which will also have a certain effect on joint stimulation and relieving symptoms. However, there is absolutely no need to wear cotton trousers in autumn because of the weather change, because this kind of cold and pain is often not a real drop in joint temperature, but a symptom caused by inflammatory reaction.
