For patients with arteritis, there are several precautions to take in daily life, including dietary and lifestyle considerations. Avoid spicy foods like chili peppers, do not drink beer, and avoid foods that cause stomach upset. Eat more fresh fruits and vegetables. Local massage can promote blood circulation and accelerate the absorption of inflammation. A hot water bag can also be used for heat therapy. Pay attention to rest and avoid excessive fatigue.
