Arthritis

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

Arthritis

Post by Khmu Nation »

I am starting to get join pain in my right big toe. It's quite painful and I assume mild arthritis. Do any of you get it? Are there any vitamins, supplements or magic potions I should be taking?

If you're a drinker it could be gout.

No magic potions, but have you checked for gout as well?

Firstly, it is imperative to create 3 threads to find your answer. Damn, deleted already!

I have had terrible foot pain on top of my foot just above my big toe. I tried a different pair of shoes for a couple weeks and I’ve fully recovered. Did you get new shoes recently?

Well done, I’ve added a recommendation as well since I recently had some foot problems of my own.

I am not a drinker and it isn't gout . I have had gout before. This is a different pain.

Don't have to be a drinker to have gout.

As for arthritis, I think @Duncan might have a secret cure, though I could be wrong. :(

C'mon Botters, really thought you were better than this. Looks like our meet up is off the cards, BTW.

I just went through a bout of Sciatica, and in the medication had two gout pills, apparently hard on the heart.
