Default question about arthritis

I know most of you folks are young and don't have to worry about that. I do know that there are a few geezers such as myself here that may have suffered from arthritis.

I went to a doctor about that once and he said, yeah, I think some of pain you are experiencing is arthritis. I don't think he prescribed anything. The pain has gotten a little worse over the last couple of years.

first question is there really any reason to visit with a doctor. I mean, will he or she just say, yep you got it.

I take one alieve a day and two to three astaxanthins. That helps.

Aside from going to a doctor, what could I be doing. I see some over the counter medicines that are not anti inflammatory drugs that is available.

I don't want to take steroid shots.

It is not debilitating, just slows me down a lot more.

What do you guys do.
