Common Age-related Pains And How To Cope With Them

Are you aware that you are ageing?

While you may not notice the passage of time, your body is no longer what it used to be when you were young. It is slowly getting susceptible to infection, disease and especially pain.

Noticing the signs and symptoms of pain can tell a lot about your ageing body. Researchers have discovered a deep connection between the process of ageing and the incidence of chronic pain.

Certain types of pain become so common with age that you should be aware of their causes and how to deal with them. Knowing about them can help you prepare for them and avoid the irritation.

Common pains of age 

1. Lower back pain: If you are under 50 and you have lower back pain, it is probably the result of sitting for long stretches. Sitting continuously puts a lot of pressure on the lower discs.

2. Osteoarthritis: This condition usually affects when the cartilage between the joints and bones become degraded. This disease can be the result of ageing or wear-and tear.

3. Joint pain: People can get joint pain without Osteoarthritis – it is called tendinitis. Inflammation of a tendon is tendinitis. Repetitive motion (like typing or playing a sport) is usually the culprit for this condition.

4. Pelvic pain: This usually affects women between the age of 18 and 50. Such a condition is not connected with the periods, for it is usually caused by Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS).

5. Carpal tunnel syndrome: When the median nerve in the hand becomes pinched by the surrounding bones or muscles, you get carpal tunnel syndrome.

6. Muscle strain: Ageing makes your muscles less flexible and less dense, making them more prone to injury and soreness.

7. Headache: Regular headache usually means that you have migraine. Migraine is different from headache since you feel nauseated as well.

How to manage such pain

1. Massage and exercise: If you have lower back pain or Osteoarthritis, then you can try out massage and low-impact aerobic exercises for your back. Or you can try walking for 30 minutes every day.

2. Apply cold pack: Chronic pain can be dealt with by taking adequate rest and applying a cold pack on the affected area. Keep the joint at an elevated position using a pillow to control the sensation of pain.

3. Physical therapy: It is usually one of the first steps to take in order to deal with chronic pain. This will help to increase blood flow and enrich the affected region with nutrients and oxygen. Such a form of therapy is especially useful in case of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.

4. Don’t lift heavy objects: The best way to avoid muscle strain is to avoid taking part in rigorous physical activities. Try to avoid lifting heavy weights.

5. Try Yoga: Regular Yoga practice will help to increase blood supply to the joints and make the muscles surrounding them more flexible.

6. Practice Meditation: In order to deal with chronic pain, you can do simple breathing exercises and meditation techniques.
