Suggest Remedies For Arthritis Of The Hand

I have several friends who are semi-retired but have arthritis of hands...I am an OT and in the old days we used paraffin wax for temporary easing of hand arthritis. so I am looking at using crockpots and paraffin as well as tommy copper gloves....are there any other recommendations for old arthritic hands?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, for the arthritis I would recommend NSAID (Non steroid anti-inflammatory drugs) and it can be used along with steroid if you qualified for the steroid, beside this nothing would be benefitted, hope this information helps.
