Research Notes on Swollen Joint Treatments


People with rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis will likely try a number of treatments for swollen and inflamed joints to find what works best for them. Anti-inflammatory medications such as ibuprofen can help in treating swollen joints. Alternating compresses of hot and cold treatments may also help relieve swelling and pain. More serious conditions can be treated by a medical professional by removing excess fluid from the joint or killing infectious bacteria around the joint.1

Fast Facts:

  • New studies have found that the pineapple extract bromelain can help joint swelling caused by arthritis.2
  • Bromelain works as a natural anti-inflammatory.2
  • You can get bromelain by eating pineapple, or using new bromelain supplements.2
  • In Hawaii, the pineapple has been traditionally used to help heal sore throats and digestive problems.2
