I agree that an anti inflammatory diet is very helpful, and for myself, I find sugar to be probably the worst culprit.

And in addition to turmeric, we take noni and boswellia which help with the inflammation.  We do take cod liver oil caps too.  None are miracle workers, though.

A chiropractor may also be of some help for your pain, @halfpint1.

Thank you all for your answers. I try to take a short walk every day. Sitting long hurts also. By the way what is ibuprofen for I hear it often but no one explains.

Ibuprofen is the main ingredient in Tylenol.

That's incorrect. Ibuprofen and Tylenol are 2 different meds.

Ibuprofen is usually seen with brand name Advil or Motrin.

Tylenol is the brand name for acetaminophen.

Thank-you for correcting me!

You are right, and I was 100% wrong.
