More Tips and Recommendations
A frequent cause of shoulder pain in seniors is degeneration of the articulation structures. This problem makes your shoulders prone to injuries, which is why a high proportion of older adults end up with this problem. Is there any way to prevent this from happening? It is never too late to start adopting the following recommendations:
- Eat a healthy diet: This is perhaps the most critical recommendation if you want to prevent degenerative disease. Your body slowly builds itself based on the building blocks you provide. Food is thus fundamental to maintaining good health. Studies show that the Mediterranean diet can be a good choice if you want to reduce the incidence of osteoarthritis.
- Protect your joints: You don’t want to become hyper-vigilant and fearful, but it is very important to take good care of your joints, even if you are still young. Warming up and cooling down after and before exercise is important for this purpose. It is also essential to use safety equipment whenever it is needed, especially if you practice sports.
