Osteopath and chiropractor Andrei Galkin told socialbites.ca that pain in the joints and impaired mobility may indicate liver dysfunction.
“If suddenly your joints start to hurt and you have problems with mobility, this is a serious reason to think not only about standard diagnoses but also about checking your liver. The most common causes of liver-related joint problems are cholestasis. This is a syndrome that occurs when bile stagnates and further impedes fluid circulation,” the doctor said.
According to the doctor, due to cholestasis, the removal of toxins from the blood slows down or even stops, and the absorption of vitamins K, E and D is also impaired. This leads to a deterioration of the immune system, which in turn exhausts the body. It is vulnerable to infections, fungi and bacteria that cause joint pathologies.
“The attending physician must recommend something specifically. But one thing is certain, you will need to completely change your diet. You need to include in your diet foods that have a positive effect on the passage of bile. These are water, citrus fruits, olive oil, fish oil, seeds and nuts,” Galkin said.
Also, to protect your joints as much as possible, you should reduce the load on them and do simple gymnastics.
