Durolane, a great solution for osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis is regarded as one of the most common diseases affecting a modern man. Some medical experts even say that there is a global pandemic. As our lifestyle and dietary habits change, so does our body. We are not accustomed to long work hours during which body is inactive and stationary. At the same time, these long work hours leave us with little time for ourselves. We are no longer able to eat healthy. All of these factors leave a mark on our organism as we suffer from different diseases such as osteoarthritis.
This is a chronic, degenerative disease. People suffering from it are forced to tackle this issue every day till the rest of their lives. Unfortunately, there is still no cure. Even with drugs such as Durolane, there is not much that we can do to prevent cell deterioration and progress of this vicious disease.
So, how does osteoarthritis affect patient’s body? It attacks patient’s joints, usually hips, knees and hands, by destroying cartilage present within them. As the cartilage becomes thinner and thinner, friction between the bones start occurring. In a normal situation, this tissue would be protected. If the patient has osteoarthritis, his bones are left naked leading to enormous amount of pain, inflammation, swelling and loss of motion. As the times goes by, friction will lead to destruction of bones tissue. Fractures will start occurring. In the end, patient will be forced to have hip or knee replacement.
There are numerous reasons that lead to development of osteoarthritis. Doctor Medica team underlines importance of genetics. If your parents or grandparents suffered from this condition, there is a high chance that you will suffer from it as well. This disease is very common for women during and after menopause. Medical experts assume that this is caused by loss of estrogen. At the same time, female body is experiencing rapid loss of calcium and certain vitamins that are crucial for bones and joints. Because of this, they are more susceptible to development of condition. Like many other illnesses, change in dietary habits is a must. Even though we are not able to cure the disease, by eating healthy, we are able to reduce deterioration of the tissue. Similarly, bad habits such as smoking can affect our joint integrity. Obesity can also pose a problem because of increased pressure on joints.
Nowadays, there are different medicines meant to reduce symptoms of knee and hip osteoarthritis. Among different options presented to us, Durolane has shown excellent results and many doctors recommend it as a great solution for this issue. Like other, similar drugs, Durolane is based on hyaluronic acid. This is one of the crucial substances within connective tissue. It increases tissue’s volume and mass. By injecting this drug, we are restoring cartilage to its previous state. With additional layer in place, bones are protected and fractions are eliminated. Because of it, other symptoms, such as pain and swelling, are removed as well. Durolane is extracted from animal organisms. Because of this, people who are allergic to avian products shouldn’t use this drug.
