I have been diagnosed with Osteoporosis and Osteoarthritis. I’m looking for suitable pain relief as I struggle with daily pain symptoms. Any suggestions or ideas? I have a very low pain tolerance.

Hey there, @Martachris

I'm really sorry to hear about your struggles with osteoporosis and osteoarthritis. They can be really tough to manage, especially if your pain tolerance is low. Some people find relief through low-impact exercises like swimming or yoga, over-the-counter pain medications or heat therapy, but it's always a good idea to discuss with your doctor to find the best option for your situation.

I’d love to hear how other members manage their pain:

What tips or treatments have you found helpful? What kinds of pain relief have you tried so far, and are there specific symptoms or times of day when your pain is worse?

Looking forward to hearing more from everyone!

Take care,
