5Lose Weight
The extra weight would place more stress and pressure on your hip or knee joints, thus speeding up the breakdown of cartilage. This eventually worsens the pain and other symptoms of arthritis. Therefore, you should make an attempt to lose some belly fat and get a healthier weight. There are many lifestyle changes to achieve this goal, such as doing exercises or having a balanced diet. In addition to alleviating arthritis, losing weight can also help you improve overall well-being and reduce the risk of degenerative changes in the future. [5]
