My leg hurts when the weather changes. Is it rheumatism?

This may be, but we can't just make a short statement on this point.

Rheumatoid arthritis is a manifestation of rheumatic fever. Rheumatoid arthritis has two characteristics: first, the joints are red, swollen and painful, and they can't move. The onset site is often the knee, hip, ankle and other major joints of lower limbs; Second, the pain is uncertain. A period of time is the attack of this joint, and a period of time is the discomfort of that joint. However, the pain does not last long and will subside in a few days. After recovery, it rarely recurs and the joints will not be damaged.

In terms of treatment:

First, the principle of drug treatment is early diagnosis and rational combination of drugs as soon as possible. Commonly used anti-rheumatic drugs and western medicines are as follows:

1. Non-self-made anti-inflammatory drugs can inhibit the synthesis of prostaglandin, produce anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects quickly, and have a good effect on relieving pain, but can not change the course of disease. Ibuprofen, naproxen and diclofenac are commonly used in clinic. 2. Antirheumatic drugs such as gold preparation and sulfadiazine. 3. Immunosuppressants, commonly used are cyclophosphamide and methotrexate. 4. Adrenocorticoids are strong anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic drugs.

Second, Chinese medicine has many prescriptions to treat and prevent rheumatoid arthritis. Among them, the main traditional Chinese medicines are drugs for expelling wind and removing dampness, nourishing blood and softening liver.

Third, in terms of life.

1. Besides daily activities, you can also do moderate training, including swimming, which is also a good way to prevent rheumatoid arthritis. However, swimming requires that the water temperature in the swimming pool should not be lower than 25 degrees, and it is effective to soak in hot springs. No more than an hour.

2. Pay attention to cold and warmth.

3, you can eat some supplements, such as mutton, papaya porridge, old hen, etc., which is helpful for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.
