Patient's question:
Knees always ache, Hello, rheumatism patients should pay attention to what in diet.Doctor's answer:
Rheumatism is a disease that affects joints, bones, muscles, blood vessels, and soft tissues or connective tissues, most of which are autoimmune diseases. The onset is often subtle and slow, with a long course of the disease, and most cases exhibit reverse hereditary tendencies across generations. Diagnosis and treatment are both challenging; different autoantibodies can often be detected in the blood, and corticosteroids and immunosuppressants provide good short-term or long-term relief. Rheumatism is very particular about diet. Avoid seafood, spicy foods, and cold foods. These are cooling foods, which can worsen the condition. It is important to pay attention to preventing colds, dampness, and coldness. Do not drink beer, coffee, or tea, and avoid fried foods, chili peppers, and scallions. Smoking should also be avoided. Regular exercise can help boost the immune system.
