Many osteoarthritis sufferers try herbal remedies as a companion to medical therapy.Herbal medicines are expected to have milder side effects than prescription medicines.

What is bone calcification?
Reported from the page
World Health Organization
(WHO), bone calcification affects all joint components including cartilage, bones, ligaments, muscles and surrounding tissues.The joints most often affected are the knees, hips, spine and hands.
Bone calcification usually appears in the late 40s to old age.However, this condition can also occur in younger people, especially athletes or those who have experienced joint injuries.
Symptoms of bone calcification can develop slowly or appear quickly after injury.In severe cases, pain and swelling can occur even at rest, and the joint becomes stiff so that it cannot be used.
Natural remedy for bone calcification
Reporting from
Healthline
Here are some natural remedies for bone calcification that can be used.However, herbal treatment for bone calcification should still be consulted with a doctor, because there is a risk of causing side effects that interact with certain drugs.
1. Green tea
Green tea is known to contain polyphenols, which are anti-inflammatory compounds that have the potential to help reduce inflammation.Several small studies have shown benefits on joint function, especially in people with knee osteoarthritis.
However, strong scientific evidence is still limited so its benefits cannot be concluded with certainty.
Green tea consumption should be done in reasonable amounts, because high extracts or excessive doses can cause liver problems.
2. Ginger
Ginger is also widely used to help relieve pain caused by osteoarthritis.The natural anti-inflammatory compounds in it can provide an analgesic effect which helps reduce complaints.
Several studies suggest that long-term use of ginger has the potential to reduce the risk of disability related to osteoarthritis.
However, health institutions such as the NCCIH recommend consuming ginger in the form of a kitchen spice, not large doses of supplements.The reason is, ginger can still cause side effects such as heartburn, diarrhea, or interact with blood thinning drugs.
3. Turmeric
Turmeric is another popular herb.The curcumin content has quite strong anti-inflammatory abilities.
Some animal studies show positive effects on the development of osteoarthritis.However, human studies have not shown completely consistent results.
Although generally safe, turmeric can still cause nausea and affect the action of other medications, especially blood thinners.
Although these herbs may provide complementary benefits, their use should not replace medical therapy.
A medical examination is needed to determine the severity of osteoarthritis, determine appropriate therapy, and prevent complications.
