Does running cause arthritis?
www.peterkfitness.com for more…….
Great news! A search of the latest research shows that running does not cause arthritis. Here’s what you need to know:
- If you have arthritis you need to monitor your symptoms and stop if you’re in pain.
- Realize that there is a difference between pain and discomfort. Pain means stop, discomfort means ice, stretch and proceed slowly
- Start all exercise gradually. Example- alternate walking/running every minute for 5 minutes. Next week do 10 minutes and so on.
